The largest 914 front t-bars I have been able to find is 23mm. I know I can switch to 911 a-arms and get more t-bar sizes, but I'm curious if anyone out there makes 24mm t-bars for 914- a-arms.
I already have 911 a-arms for a swap if need be, but it would be nice to save a few hours of work... |

Thanks everyone for the replies. Unfortunately rules won't allow me to switch to a coilover setup.
Pcar916--Car is a dedicated track car with full cage tied into shock towers. Right now I'm running the following: 23mm front torsion bars 22m front sway no rear sway 275lb rear springs Bias Ply Hoosier TDs 1871 pound car Car is very neutral with this setup. Two local 914 guys who frequent the same tracks (mostly Road America) as I do, and are very quick, suggested upping my spring rates to the following: 24mm front torsion bars ~500lb rear springs Both noted a significant improvement with this setup at RA. I'm certainly open to other suggestions though. |
