What are the benefits of using 911/930 front suspension on a 914.
I have installed gas shocks, turbo tie rods but I have seen it recommended to use the 930 front suspension. Is this just to get the brakes or is this for struts/brakes/torsion bars? If I upgrade the calipers and rotors will it be just as good as a complete swap? |

QUOTE(brant @ Mar 4 2006, 09:39 PM) All 911's were 19mm in fact its not even really a full 19mm its actually like 18.8 or something (while the 914 bars are 17.9mm) if you are not using the 911 A-arms then that means you are still using the 914 A-arms and thus the 18's (for example if your just changing struts) I imagine some of the really special 911's might have come with bigger bars, the turbo's might have ? but otherwise all 911's were 19mm from 1965 until 1989 brant i concur with brant... |
