My 914 has a 70' 911S front suspension with a 15mm swaybar (thru the body stock type).
If I order a 19mm Weltmeister, do I specify for a 914, or a 911? Or is there any difference? I'm assuming the Weltmeister just slips right in, or will I have to make modifications to install it? Would like to order immediately to hopefully have it installed before the next AX. |

Go with the 22mm bar and set it on full soft. The 19mm ends up to small if you even think about tracking the car.
Buy a 914 bar. The 911 bar however was "the same" B |

QUOTE(Brad Roberts @ May 1 2003, 11:02 PM) Go with the 22mm bar and set it on full soft. The 19mm ends up to small if you even think about tracking the car. Do you recommend a 22mm bar for autocrossing as well, or just for track? I don't know what size the torsions bars are (since they're from a 911S probably heavier than stock 914?). The rear has 160# springs w/koni adjustables. I don't drive the car on the street much (a few hundred miles per month). |

Yes on the 22 Welt (or is it 21mm ???) for autoXing.
A 22 on full soft will work just like a 19 set in the mid range (which means you are almost out of adjustment on the 19) I know lots and lots of people pissed when they got faster and found they needed to buy a new bar because they went with the 19 first. Your 911 torsion bars should be 19mm. I think this is what I measured a few days ago. B |

Get a Tarett bar. Better for not much more money. Ive heard of Weltmeister hardware breaking, and them telling you tough titty on single replacement parts.

IMO- I like the 21MM Welt on soft for AX.
Do the torsion, ball joints, and TTR at the same time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) |
