Porsche pattern onto CSP discs 205 PCD?
Porsche pattern onto CSP discs 205 PCD?
by Pucka » Fri Mar 30, 2012 9:55 am
Considering a few mods and would like to run porsche pattern rims. I've currently got CSP discs 205 pcd, and early spindles, what options do I have to get the porsche wheels on?
Anyone done this or do you have to run adaptors?

I think you'll be best off switching to late front spindles and building up a 944 based brake setup. You'll be able to sell the CSP gear for quite a bit I reckon... OR just leave it alone!!! It's fine as it is!

Hey Bob, hope you are well. Trust me I do have some method in my madness!
OK so buy some later spindles and then run 944 discs and calipers.... thought this would be the case. My early spindles are recon ones too so should sell reasonable well.
I am having a new factory built.... it will have rather alot of 'spare' space so the plan is to get the bus in for some mods

Cheers buzz, I'll get that bad boy chopped out and replaced!
Yeah it is fine just the way it is...... But, like you I've got a few ideas and I like tinkering!

Remember if you're changing to later sprindles, you'll need later trailing arms and late beam (unless you have narrowed beam that accepts either arm type)
