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? |

Elephant racing has a great tool in their website to help set up the suspension. They provide different combinations of front/rear sway bars, torsion bars and rear springs for set ups ranging from street use to full racetrack cars.
Just check: 914 suspension setups... These configurations, however, assume that you are using the correct damping (i.e. shocks) system in your car since the shocks they provide are the 914 units from Bilstein (Konis would be OK too). On a 914, it is easier to accomplish this by using OE struts. |
