NineErevens Millenium thread. Updated 12/31/13

Recently sold an M3 to get into this nice 911 I saw on my commute to the new job. I live in cincinnati, OH and i just turned 23.

Some info:

2000 911 Carrera C4 millenium edition.

Car has 35,000 miles on it and is in incredible shape.

Now on to the pics!
As the car sat for sale.


Shortly after first wash


Installing coilovers


alignment and routine maintenance. (oil, plugs, seals, hoses, all fluids in tranny and diff, etc were replaced)


The new low






new wheels






and finally the new fitment. I will post up once the fenders are rolled and the tires are mounted.


18x8.5 +50 and 18x11 +43

Thank!

I will probably do the darker smoked clears if I do change them out. All my attention and time is going into these wheels right now. I just got the fenders rolled last night it its perfect. No paint cracks, no chipping and better than if a roller was used. I'll post pics tonight. I'm getting tires mounted.

^^ I could but they aren't worth much.



up on the alignment rack with it lifted off the ground the rears poke quite a bit but on its own weight they tuck in quite nicely. There is still a lot of work to go to get them to where I can drive it aggressively with zero rubbing. I am machining the wheels tomorrow and then raising the car up a touch this weekend. Should be good then however the fronts do need a 10mm spacer on them.

anyone know a good place to grab a hub centric spacer that is reasonably priced?

Any of the major companies like H&R should sell them. Check eBay, you might find a good deal on there.

I dont know as of right now, there are a few things I would like to fix like the interior "wood" grain is starting to crack, so I am going to pull it and repair it and then paint it. So just little stuff like that until i see or think of something I want to tackle next now the the suspension and wheels are done.

I have never seen the wood grain inside these cars. Mine is all silver accent panels. I want the seat belts to match and the back seat covers cause I have the sport seats in mine. You thinking about a wing or any other cosmetics?

That's some meat on the rear! Can't wait to see it on the ground. What suspension work are you planning?
