You have mail

 

Thanks Daniel, if you can send those pics

 

BUmp, still after some parts

We bought the Ohlins GT2/GT3 suspension kit to convert the TTS to RWD but still need some parts if anyone has an old GT2 suspension lying around !

 

Just sold a set I had laying around to a guy in San Francisco for $650.

 

i don't think you need a complete suspension to use these. ask pwderhound but i think sleeves are all you need

 

Yep. All you need are the shock sleeves and also the GT2/3 upper mounts but you'll still be left with the screwy AWD geometry to deal with. If you wanna do it right and correct the front geometry then you also need to replace the front uprights, tension bolts, brake shields and brake rotors along with the shocks and upper mounts naturally. That's really the correct way to to it.

 

thanx i wasn't sure. mine came with tt specific jrz coil overs so i haven't ventured past looking!

 

John, thanks for the calls. The car is at Tim's place about 60 miles from my house and as I am new to Porsche am kind of flying blind.

The Ohlins kit has the struts and coils for a GT3/GT2 as per

http://www.roadandtrackbyohlins.com/...6_GT3_GT21.pdf

I think Tim has the top mounts, rotors and some other bits. I looked at the OEM "explosion views" of the suspensions but without having the car in front of me and the Ohlins in front of me arent sure.

The picture you sent and the items basically implies if we get the shock sleeves for a GT3 then the Ohlins struts/coils will slide into that and then slide into the GT3 upper mounts and onto the Turbo S..

Will review this week and see what we actually have and come back to you

Appreciate the input
