Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys, What do you think of this wing on my 2000 C4 ... It's actually a 997 gt3 wing made for a 996 NB. Need your honest opinions. Do you think it will be safe?

POST 2Original post

Sorry, but I am a fan of the OEM Taco wing on the MK1 cars. Just like the look and its made for the car--IMHO. Good luck with whatever you do..

POST 3Original post

you need a wing.... with the nose and sides it's waiting for it...I am no help on which one

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8497659

Agreed. I too have no idea which wing to go for but definitely not the taco. No offense.

POST 5Original post

That 997 wing is too big for your car.... it may even ruin the dynamics at high speed. you need a bigger front nose to balance it out. I would stick with the 996 wing.... the Mk1 wing is my choice, but if you must have a Mk2 style I would do it like this....

POST 6Original post

I love the fact OEM parts are tested in the wind tunnel before it is produced. They come in a package and should be treated as such. How many other aftermarket design pieces carry the same credentials?

POST 7Original post

Do you like it? If so... Keep it! If not go with what you like!

POST 8Original post

Quotes source post: 8498262

+1 And I like the taco wing. If you don't really care about tracking your car hard, and looks are your thing, then choose whatever wing makes you happiest. If you care about aerodynamics, then ask a bunch of trackers and copy what they've done on their track cars with non-OEM wings.

POST 9Original post

The track option is really the CUP wing! with a good front splitter from the Cup car! The OEM Taco wing is good but not what you want unless you are running the Stock class!

POST 10Original post

Show the rest of your car. Are those rears as wide as they appear?

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks all for your feed back! Was afraid that many would go against it! Haha.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8498298

Sorry i do not have any pictures with the full car. That is actually not my car. From the pictures it actually does not look that big eh!

POST 13Original post

I like it but I would get the 996 GT3 RS wing with the straight uprights. I have that same wing for my track car and I don't like the "zig" in the uprights, so much so I almost returned it.

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8498740

Agreed. But do you think that the wing is smaller as compared to the 996 GT3 RS Wing? The GT3 RS Wing is 55' if i am not mistaken?

POST 15Original post

The Geddy wing I got is 55" and its very big. Too big for a NB 996...

POST 16 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8498893

Ahh ... I see ... Think I better spend the money somewhere else first. I do not track my car so the Wing isn't a priority.

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The wing is 54 inches and can be made shorter. What do you think?

POST 18Original post

shorter would be good. Not sure if the width is different between the 996GT3 RS and the 997GT3 tail. The 997 GT3 one I have is very wide, a very big wing which is good for the race car. Just something else to think about.

POST 19 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8500549

Yea shorter would be good. The Length of the wing in the picture i have attached earlier in the post is 54 inches. How does 53 - 52 inches look?

POST 20Original post

Just kidding! He has some nice stuff like this: http://www.mashaw.com/html/clubsport996.html

POST 21Original post

Who makes a 996GT3 RS wing? I can't find one. That is what you need to get. I am talking about the width of the wing (how fat the wing is). It has to be like 8". Its big. I will try and take a photo at work tomorrow. http://www.gettydesign.com/996_tailbases.html

POST 22 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8502018

Are You talking about the Gt3-03 tailbase with 55inch rs/cup wing?

POST 23Original post

I like it. I think it looks great! As far as aero goes - you're not competing in Grand Am or the Rolex series, are you? So (assuming) it's not perfectly efficient on your 996. So what. Who makes it and how much?

POST 24 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8503397

Finally! Someone is on the same page as i am. I think the blade is exactly the same as compared to the 996 gt3 rs blade. Only difference is the decklid being a 997 gt3. Betterbodies makes them.

POST 25 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey guys, anyone knows of a reputable bodykit maker? I am looiking for a Mk1 gt3 bumper and 996 GT3 RS Wing. Cheers

I like how you matched the rim color to the gold crest color on the frunk. Nice attention to detail.

POST 40Original post

Look up a company called Aeromotions. That is if you want a serious wing that actually works. Active areo so cool even f1 is giving it a shot again. Yay first post.
