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? |

Eric, Original Bilstein, Koni and Boge struts do not have inserts in them. Pull the cap and all the oil and guts fall out. IIRC, all the Bilstein and Koni inserts sold as replacement parts will only fit the Boge strut. I believe you have to have the Bilstein and Koni struts rebuilt as their own inserts will not fit. |
