@911porschephile5 3 года назад

Congrats on the 10k subs Will! Absolutely the PSS10’s! And the FD SS kit, yeah! Really does transform the experience. Only one missing I see is I put in a RS lightweight flywheel and that really brought the throttle response and quicker revs for heel/toe to the drive. It is more difficult to drive but once ya got it down, it’s very satisfying! I’d be curious if the chip would make a difference on the verioram? Time to hit up some forums! 😂. Nice job Will

At 10:37 , oh my God! That is my favorite 993 - original height for daily usability and perfect ride height with uniform gap between the tires and the arches. Original 100% body and 95 with the handle bar. Original 17" wheels!!! The only thing missing is the Riviera Blue! Basic Carrera 993 100% original is the best 993 for me! :) The thing is the German Masterpiece!

@James-pl2oy 3 года назад

Great video! Will definitely be doing my suspension soon. Have a ‘97 i got not too long ago riding on stock and totally agree with the US ride height. Thinking about the Porsche Classic suspension developed in partnership with Bilstein but doesn’t seem like there are many reviews yet. May be the fact it’s a relatively new product and a little costlier than just getting regularly branded bilsteins but really thinking of restoring mine to be period correct. Thought about the coil overs but not looking for something that aggressive so my best option may just be B8s with RoW springs

@vincentnorris9627 3 года назад

I agree with the PSS10 Coilover Suspension. I just got my suspension installed this spring, which the car rides like a new car.

@marshallsonmotorsltd2101 Год назад

Like all the mods 👍but personally I’d of stuck with oem wheels

@vanceshaw3675 2 года назад

Great Video! I have one more suggestion. I have owned a 993 c4 (1995) from new for 25 years. Best thing I had done was take the Flywheel off. The OBD1 cars can run without the Flywheel. Amazing throttle response (like a Motorcycle), also when creeping at slow speeds the car is much smoother. The computer automatically compensates for the lack of flywheel weight on startup. Mark Tashjian at Formula Motorsports made the suggestion and did the job years ago.

Just got a 993 a few months ago and I would agree that all of these address the essential shortcomings of the car from a new owners perspective.

@arpadszekely5548 2 года назад

great video, congrats! I have all these mods on my 1995 C4, except the steering wheel, which is the 996 3 spoke whel with airbag. I would suggest 3 more mods, which bring a lot of benefit: Nr1: Powerflex bushes change all the bushes front&rear including the rear subframe bushing. The complte set is about 600$ + installation. The firmer bushes don't have any negative aspect for the ride quality, but increase handling while reducing body move Nr2: larger sway bar I use genue 993 RS swaybars (F&R) which reduce the body roll. You can use aftermarket bras from H&R, Eibach, etc. Price is depending on manufacturer Nr3: Rothsport poly steering rack bushings + steering rack brace Improved steering feel and precision for 160$ As Nr4 I'm planning to install Elephant Racing bumpsteer kit for 500$. I've read positive feedbacks, let's see.. Hope my comment was useful

@danedaniels3686 Месяц назад

I had a 993 C2 after 4 torsion bar 911. I wanted to get the car lower for better handling. I used MO30 OEM springs and snagged one of the last set Koni coil over struts built on the Boge shock struts. The fronts were adjustable with a knob on top. To adjust the rear they had to be removed. I called Koni and sent them the rears. They converted them to top knob adjustment. I got a OEM front spoiler and the factory aero kit spoiler and side rails.

@Rennthusiast 3 года назад

Standard discs and pads. My AC leaks Freon, so no AC right now. Can be a little brutal tbh. I have the Bergville HID headlight bulbs installed. Good mod. Running standard clutch and flywheel. Clutch has maybe 10,000 miles on it and the standard set up shifts so well between the clutch, dual mass flywheel snd the SSK so no plans to change.

It’s not labeled and the documentation just says “custom exhaust” I don’t love the tone down low but it’s fun up high. The main thing that’s cool about it is the look. I’m swapping back to stock this fall though. No heat exchangers and I’m not doing another winter with no heat in it. As far as what other guys run, I know some really like the Danske (sp?).

@@Rennthusiast I’m most curious if you got the 93 Octane version. Assuming you didn’t get the LWFL version.

Nope. Not LWFW. Not a fan of that mod. I didn’t know they had a 93 octane version. I always run 93 so wouldn’t notice anything unusual there unless I ran different fuel. I’ve reached out and will let you know.
