Thinking about upgrading brakes, suspension and WHEELS

[NYBugman1972]

Yes, the Red vert is Brian's "Phat73vw". I believe all 4 of his wheels are 17x7, et40.

CSP's non-vented disks are identical to the KG disks in dimensions. The CSP/Kerscher "True" vented disks should work, but you need their entire kit to fit them.

Disks and drums will be fine for your 1600. I have a 1600 with headers and dual weber 40's and the disk/drum combo is fine.

Actually, the "honda" wheels with et40 is a more appropriate spacing than Porsche's et55. With the 40 offset, you don't need any spacing. But, Porsche wheels are Porsche wheels. You can't replicate that feeling.

As far as I know, there's not much F/I tuning available. I do know of a guy with a 75 vert who set his C/R at 9 to 1, stock everything and a K&N.

Topline's Green test car was fitted with 17x7 et55 wheels, as well as 17x7.5 et52 (?) wheels (current).
