been slowly collecting parts and working on this car for almost 5 years now...
not using those steel vw trailing arms anymore I was gonna use narrowed ones so could tuck 16x7's but i've decided to use 944 turbo rear arms and go with custom offset wheels that are 8.5 in the rear and 7 in the front.

Any updates?
Are you running a 915 or a 901? Just curious of what modifications might be needed for the shift linkage.
Nice work!
edit: I found the other thread! |

some more photos to digest....been mostly mocking measuring and planning the last little while...
the new setup with the 944/951 turbo arms
By skivw67 at 2011-02-18
need to mod the selector rod a little shorter to clear the pan. and make the new linkage rod
By skivw67 at 2011-02-18
also making plans for the rear tiebar/upper coilover mount trusbar/subframe thing...thinking aluminum tubing and heim joints... or something like that we'll see what my grey matter produces...
By skivw67 at 2011-02-18
its comfirmed the fender will clear the oil tank no problem...need to make mounts and hoses.

next will be making the final cuts from the engine bay, installing a firewall and welding in the rear mounts for the engine. then make it shift properly...
