Completed - FCM Elite Stage 3 Ultimate for Porsche 911 964

#Porsche #Bilstein #FCMElite
Getting the little details sorted on this FCM Elite Stage 3 Ultimate build for our Porsche 964 customer, Paul. It'll be much more compliant (and faster) than the standard H&R coilovers already on the car. Thanks to Evan at Elephant Racing for his support.

Thanks for taking the time to post. Always interested to see what you're up to.

Mostly Bimmers and Porsches, a few Miatas (more lately than last year), an S2000, and always thinking about a Fat Cat stage rally setup that would rival Reiger's stuff ;)

Hello this question is not related to your post. But i noticed that you seem to be knowledgeable with suspension dampers. I bought some used bilstein inserts many years ago to put in my 84 944 and the seller said it came out of a 944. However it is too thick to fit in housing.i have asked what application they were meant for but No one seems to know. The stamping is 7150114h000. If you could help that would be great. If not I understand.

Cool car, I wish you good luck with it. I would contact Bilstein Sales or Technical Support department and ask them to look up that part number and also what is needed to fit your '84 944. You could also try a Porsche parts specialist like Pelican Parts or Elephant Racing. Once you get the fitment sorted I'd be happy to discuss optimization options with my FCM Elite methods.

@SuspensionTruth Thanks. I will reach out to sales again and see what can be found.

You've inspred me to make my own custom coilovers with parts from BC Racing (if you ever need independent ride height adjustment, thats seperate from spring compression). Found out from Frugal_Fabrications that they take 46mm bilstein pistons.

Glad to be an inspiraton! I tend to take careful measurements and adjust body/shaft lengths accordingly so any preload adjustment is in small range. I'd rather avoid the 'tube-in-a-tube' design which sometimes end up with excessively reduced droop travel which can cause inside wheelspin when least expected.
