RSR9 offers this complete and revised Weight Optimized Ball Bearing Rear Axle for the uncompromising sport driver and for every systematic and consistently built race car.

The OEM rear axle is known for its rubber bearings wearing out causing an unstable rear axle and rumbling noises. Especially the rubber bearings between the rear axle cross tube and the strut often are heavily affected.

Our rebuilt Weight Optimized Ball Bearing Rear Axle painted in silver (RAL 9006) or black (RAL 9005) includes the following upgrades and therefore probably is the best upgrade / replacement option on the market.

• The rubber bearings between the rear axle cross tube and the strut are replaced by grooved ball bearings (sealed up on both sides)
• OEM rear rubber bearings (477 501 089) are replaced by heavy duty solid Aluminium Bushings
• OEM upper rubber mountings (477 501 069A) are replaced by solid Aluminium mounting brackets
• The OEM two-part struts are replaced by a one-piece upgrade. Torsion bars are completely deleted, height adjustment is carried out via the coilover system only (we recommend the use of the KW Var. 3 or KW Competition). This allows the elimination of changes in toe and resonant intrinsic steering behavior under acceleration and load changes
• The guiding arm installation points are adapted allowing camber settings from 0° to -4° even when the car is extremely lowered
• The Rear Axle weighs 9.5kg less than the OEM version

Please note that this upgrade dramatically increases the rigidity of the rear axle, inevitably reducing driving comfort.

Engineered, tested and manufactured in Germany. Race-tested on the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

Product Specification:

• Completely Rebuilt Rear Axle
• All rubber bearings are replaced by Aluminium upgrades / grooved ball bearings
• Torsion bar delete including redesigned one-piece strut
• Weight saving 9.5kg
• Camber adjustment of 0° to -4° also when the car is extremely lowered

Core exchange required.

Production lead time (if not in stock) is approx. 10 working days from payment. 

RSR9 offers these rebuilt Unibal equipped Track Control Arms for the uncompromising sport driver and every systematically and consistently built race car.

The Track Control Arms are completely rebuilt and optimized including the weak OEM rubber bearings being replaced by bolted heavy duty Unibal Universal joints and the OEM ball joints factory-fitted with plastic bushings (that often tend to wear out quickly) are replaced by heavy-duty, low-wear, more pressure resistant bronze bushing upgrades. This modification drastically reduces elasticity and the intrinsic steering behaviour of the Track Control Arms resulting in a more agile and sharp cornering performance and more direct feedback. Imprecise feedback, impulsive noise and wear are a thing of the past.

Please note that due to the extreme stiffness achieved this upgrade will reduce driving comfort. Engineered, race-tested and manufactured in Germany.

The Track Control Arms are completely revised and painted in silver (RAL 9006) (optionally also black RAL 9005 is available) and reassembled using the above components. They may be directly installed as a bolt-in upgrade.

We recommend the combined fitment with our Unibal Transverse Control Arm Bearings and the O-Structure Brace.

Product Specification:

• Completely rebuilt Track Control Arms, sandblasted and powder coated
• Unibal Motorsport bearings, Max. load axial 32000N, radial 106500N
• Heavy duty, low wear, pressure resistant bronze bushings
• Bolt-in upgrade

Core exchange is required.

RSR9 presents another innovative and highest quality product: The 993 Headlight Lightweight Conversion Wings for all Porsche 968 models.

Do you love the timeless and elegant design of the Porsche 968? We always did and we do. Do you also like its “not-so-timeless frog eyes”, a design and concept relict from the much older V8 928? We - to be perfectly frank - did not like them particularly well, and that is expressed in a diplomatic manner. And we also determined that they also weigh too much with their heavy pods, casing and lift mechanism with not one but even two heavy electric motors. At the same time, having owned and driven a 993 or two, we always admired the impressively beautiful headlights and therefore thought “could and should we not combine the best of the 968 world with the best of the 993 world?”

The initial decision was rapidly made, but the implementation took quite a bit longer. We have seen a few 968 with 993 headlights added in the past. Some of them used the standard 968 wings and simply added the headlight units from the 993. This did not convince us because the 993 headlights sit in a lot steeper angle in the wings than the 968 pop up headlight apertures are designed. Furthermore, when simply adding the 993 headlight units to a 968 wing, the lenses noticeably protrude from the aperture and wing surface making the result look “pop eyed”, unfinished and not factory looking.

We therefore decided to completely and symmetrically re-model a set of 968 wings and implement the following requirements:

• Implement the headlight aperture and surrounding from the 993 wing allowing for a recessed factory installation.
• Increase the angle of the headlight aperture so that 993 headlight units can be used but not so much that it is as steep as on the 993 (which again would look incorrect for the 968)
• Completely remodel the entire shaping and curvature of the wing above the sideline (which became necessary due to the increased angle)
• Completely remodel the actual side line of the wing
• Ensure best possible symmetry in the design

We spent a good week developing and perfecting a set of wings until we were happy with the result.

You may now benefit from our development efforts and purchase a factory-appearance, high-quality and lightweight set of 993 headlight conversion wings for your 968 at a fair price. You may therewith both perfection the looks of your 968 and save a lot of weight on the front axle, which is the axle on which the 968 is “too heavy” anyways. To perfect and round up the 993 front appearance, also check out our 993 Turbo S style brake air intakes with projector lights.

We also would like to point out that by converting to 993 headlights, your 968 is entering the world of modern Litronic (HID) light performance…say bye bye to poor night vision…

Installation

The old wings and headlight mechanism is simply removed and the new wings are bolted on like the steel wings have been before. In order to install the 993 headlight units, the wheel housing front part (944 501 345 00 / 01) must be slightly trimmed with a cut-of wheel allowing for the longer 993 headlight units to fit in. This bodywork modification could be reversed at a later date by welding back on the material which was previously trimmed off. If you consider reverting back the car to factory wings and pop-up headlights, we recommend to keep the material which is trimmed of.
