Starting to put my 966 Evo together now and have some questions.
Shimming the front driveshafts. How many shims are you using on either side? Cause the manual suggests 4 on the inside and 2 on the outside but that will give you almost 2 mm of play.
Downsides so far as Ive noticed have been, the manual is just utter garbage. Alot of filing and reaming on the A-arms to make everything travel smoothly, like alot more than on my old Mugen.
I am going to ask alot in this thread just so you know. I havent run onroad since 2003 so Im fairly rusty

Yea I know that I have one of those on each side.
The manual suggests 4 small shims on the inside and 2 on the outside and then 1 of those big ones. But its far from enough and Im not sure on what side to put the additional 2-3 shims required.
I ran Mugen in the past and that didnt have any shimming required so Im a bit confused.

Does anyone know when all the new parts that were introduced at the worlds are going to be available for the public?
Figured I might aswell get those stuff and learn the car with them.

Btw aint there supposed to be a new brakedisc pulley aswell? Cause I think I have the one with two pins but theres supposed to be one released with the update kit that has 3 pins.
My local dealer has already boycotted me cause I bought the car from you so it doesnt really matter anymore where I buy spares and options either
