Re: our 3 bb6 preludes in the netherlands
Today i got my "new" calipers

Little testfit by hand

Only thing i tought and looked for on the net was the mounting of the brake line
Porsche is like this

I took the bracket and originel brake line of to check the threat
The original prelude bolt and brake line fit on the caliper
Lucky because i already bought new stanless brake lines for the type S
Last week i made a little bracket as a zerro point
Put this point on the car to check what and how for the bracket
Need to say the bracket would be an easy job
Put the caliper on the zerro point with a zip-ty to check the looks and see how it fits with the wheels
Caliper isnt in the right position but we can see its going to fit perfect

Space between caliper and wheel
(Its not a perfect fit but we get there)

Yesterday got the srs header so we got a lot of things to do

Re: our 3 bb6 preludes in the netherlands
Yesterday being bussy with my bb9
Planning was t fit the srs header
Got the old header off without problems
Than the srs upper part on the engine

Than the downpipe
Only there came the trouble
Downpipe is to short and is stuck to the oil pan
The header came from a 4th gen ( i knew that when i bougt it)
I can put another oilpan on the engine but is to much work
I think i order an extra flange to put between the 2 parts an that must do the job
Had the bb9 on the lift so why not work on the brembo brakes
The wheels wont fit with the brembo brakes (offset)

No space

Still checking what disks i could use

Re: our 3 bb6 preludes in the netherlands
so here some new updates from holland
2 weeks ago i sold the porsche callipers because of finding disks
the plan was using ATR disks but with the callipers it woudnt use the whole disk
soon mu bb9 get a 5 lug swap and i'm going to use the callipers of the type S on my bb9
but what on the type S ?
for the type S i'm goning to look for ATR callipers and disks
couple of weeks ago it was still nice weather here so it was a good time to get the type S out of the garage for a spin
my girlfriend works at a gasstation and they have the carwash
good time to wash it again
when she was done working we brought here lude home and i let her drive the type S for the first time on the road
she never drove a RHD car so it was a little scary for me
she did it without any problems and even better than me the first time haha
here she is driving the type S

after the drive she made some photos



1.5 week ago i got some new part for the type S
original type S rear emblem

after putting the new emblem on the trunk we got to my brother in law and his girlfriend for some coffee and they had a nice place for some photoshoot



engine

interior

those are all made by phone
my brother in laws girlfriend even made some with here camera but she s busy with some little photoshop
here is one photo i got from her

when i see the photos i think the car sits to high
maybe i get it a couple of cm lower
but other way i´m thinking of airride because the car is only for show and not a daily
whay does other people think of airride

Re: our 3 bb6 preludes in the netherlands
Little update
The silver bb9 of my girlfriend was starting verry bad
Problem was a bad starter
We tought there were more problems with the car so we did a compression test

First cilinder was a first try for me so the "starting" time was shorter than the rest
Compression is good on the car
Last week i was busy in my garage and every time my jacks were in my way
So made a solution

Next week i get some nice things

Real jdm licence plates
Just for show
Soon i get some new oem parts

Oem interior filter set
Yesterday i got the ATR callipers delivered only need to open the package haha
Soon new updates
