I'd like to hear from guys who have upgraded their front ends and what they chose VS what engine's they are running.
I was looking at a 935 suspension setup tonight as a possibility. I would like to at least mount the black Brembo brakes to the car, I don't think I'll need to go as extreme as the "Big Red's" for my 3.2 car. So if anyone can suggest what cars to get suspensions from to do this I would appreciate the tips! James |

Instead of the front camberplates pictured above (which need welding in a new box section) you could also get Tarret or WEVO top strut mounts, which allow for more neg.camber than the stock mounts and have monoball inserts.
Just to clarify / help you in your search, the 911 SC was build from 78 through 83 The 911 Carrera 3.2 was made from 84 through 89 Both have the aluminum x-member (although some say the earlier steel x-member is stronger and won't flex) The brakes are the same (piston size and brakepad) but the Carrera 3.2 had thicker rotors (24mm IIRC, but same diameter) and therefore the calipers were spaced differently to fit over the wider rotors cheers, Jeroen |
