Deviating Points For GT2

Deviating points for GT2
In the description of the 911 GT2 suspension alignment, only those points are listed which differ from the 911 Turbo (996).

These are:
^ Changed adjustment values.
^ Front-axle camber setting: Unlike the 911 Turbo (996), a basic camber adjustment is made by means of intermediate plates on the 2-part control arm of the front axle for the 911 GT2. A 1 mm thick adjustment plate is fitted as standard on the right and left in the 911 GT2 (M002 and M003)! Camber adjustment (fine adjustment) is carried out at the spring-strut mount as for the 911 Turbo (996).
^ For the measured-value pickups, electronic wheel alignment testers require spoiler adapters of 50 mm and 100 mm in length, depending on the wheel alignment tester. This is the only means of enabling data transfer from the right side to the left. The wheel alignment testers recommended by Porsche which have a spoiler measuring program require 100 mm spoiler adapters on the rear axle. Observe the operating instructions from manufacturer of the measuring instrument if necessary!
^ In the case of the 911 GT2, the vehicle height can be adjusted on the front and rear axle using the adjusting nut(s) at the corresponding spring strut(s). Maximum wheel-load difference to right and left on the front and rear axle is 15 kg.
^ Check all wheels for clearance after adjustment and assembly work!

Note:
^ If a wheel removal is necessary, use assembly aids (assembly pins) in order to exclude any possibility of heavy contact of the wheel with the brake disc! The assembly aids (2 assembly pins) are located in the luggage compartment!





^ Screw the 2 assembly aids (assembly pins), instead of 2 wheel bolts, into the wheel hub before wheel removal/installation! During removal, first remove the 3 remaining wheel bolts and remove the wheel carefully, without touching the brake discs!
