Many 4k questions.....
Seeking 4k wisdom:
I have a 86 4k with the turbo engine from a 5k in it. The car is mechanically
very sound, and well maintained, but essentially stock (except for the engine
& headlights), and is driven daily by my fiancee. I am also a member of PCA,
and I drive my 911 and instruct at many PCA events. Unfortunately, my 911 is
broken (bad engine trouble), and I have registered for an event in June, and
the 911 will not be fixed by then. So the 4k is going. And it will be driven
pretty hard.
Now the advice I need:
1. I am going to change the brake fluid out to AP600, and I wanted to put
some higher performance pads on the car. I use Pagids on the 911, and I like
them. Are they available for a 4k? Where? Any other suggestions??
2. What are the wheel/tire options for track tires? Does anyone have a set of
straight, ugly, cheap wheels they want to part with??? How large a wheel/tire
will fit??
3. The car has too much body roll currently. 2 Bennet suggested the Coil-over
kit they sell and Koni yellows. I have Koni yellows on the 911,and I'd
definitely consider them for the 4k. Has anyone used the coil-over kit? How
easy is it to install? Any other ideas/suggestions?
4. Any other ideas/thoughts/potential points-of failure/things to
watch/check???
Thanks for all the help
