Ultimate 400k Mile 911 Suspension Refresh. Vin Brings his 911sc’s Handling To 2021 Standards

At the end of the day, does it really matter that your 911 has 400,000 miles in it, if you’ve got great pals like BBI Autosport and KW suspension? Yeah it probably does. But Vin ain’t scared of a big project, so he goes all the way in on dialing in a suspension that can hit the track with confidence. Or at least most confident than bushings that have more miles than a city bus.
