What a great looking car !

Very nice car.

A tip on the spots. If you really want them to be effective they need to be mounted higher up. Down low may look nice but the lower they are the less they light up your way.

I started with mine like this:





but moved them to this position, which has improved the night time visibility in a BIG way.



Also, if you have an LSD do you have a gearbox oil cooler? if not, you'll need one. The LSD will cause the oil to get very hot during competition.

Do you have skid plates, front and rear?

[9treffen]

Yes !! I know the lights not make perfect light......

I have prepared and would mount in other position or make another news suports ......

But now the car is stopped waiting my 911 R "tribute" are finished and return make more work with this car........

I see your very good project rally car in 914world........

Think you for all and promised when I'm working with this more pics here of the steps......

Hi 9treffen,

I am interested in what parking/hand brake you have fitted, and any tech details ?

Thanks,

Tony

Mine is a hydraulic one like this with a ratchet on so I can use it as a normal parking brake when not in competition mode.

Hi Moggy,

There is already something very similar fitted. It is road legal in the USA, but not over here apparently. The mot man says it will fail unless it has an alternative handbrake system, either cable or 911 ebrake , to back up the hydraulic set up. Sounds like you have a very sympathetic mot centre !

[moggy]

Do modern cars still have cable operated hand brakes?

[9treffen]

Hi !! Because have finished my 911R tribute project and is near for can start making rents because more people make questions in 9treffen.com web page.......

Now I'm working for start the mountains of the engine for can have the car finished with speed......

Your man is correct Tony, you need either a cable or electronic system that is separate from the hydraulic foot brake. that is how modern cars are compliant with a handbrake lever delete.

I can't think of a better way to spend a family holiday..nice !
