Looking or 996 GT2/GT3 spindles/uprights
Looking for used straight 996 GT2/3 spindle uprights for a project. Some GT3Cup ones will work if they have the right caliper bolt spacing.

According to LA Dismantler(crooks), $2000 a pair. Real world is $2000 a pair new with bearings and hubs. Used is all over the place depending. I can buy new, but I am not in a hurry so I am price shopping for the best deal.

Geometry between the suspension and the car. More predictable geometry changes when steering regardless of ride height and camber. More suspension options via the GT3cup scene which is more competition based suspensions and often time available cheaper. Lighter spindle.
PN: 996-341-157-91 & 158-91
The 996 cups often use a few variations of this part number with slight variances, but are interchangeable for my purposes. So those would be acceptable as well. Or 997 GT3Cup which is basically a 996 RSR upright with 380mm brake mounting.

0396,
Yeah unfortunately they have a great inventory and are hard to avoid all together. But anything they sell with a "GT" moniker is typically priced almost at new price. So, for me if my only
option is them i will order new and wait for whatever lead time. They leverage their prices under the assumption that we will not look elsewhere and compare prices because we are all rich and dumb.

I just found recently that all 996 cup spindles will work for my purposes.
The main difference is the early ones were designed for 330mm gt3mk1 or 996 turbo brakes and the offset was off from the standard gt3 mk2 350mm setup by 1.5mm. But that just determines if you are going to run gt2/3 rotor offset or 996TT/997TT offset. I will be running 350mm.
