Does anyone know of a thread that discusses the pros/cons/how-to's of using a 996 suspension on a 914? Many thanks...

that's what I do! Group: Members Posts: 20,065 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Port Hope, Ontario Member No.: 26 Region Association: Canada |
The amount of work involved you could design a suspension from scratch. I'd look at what the off road baja bug crowd is doing. Same thing just shorter travel.
I'd also look at what the DIY custom supercar guys are doing. |
