WM 449503 Suspension Alignment, Complete (Gt3, Gt2, Gt3 RS, Gt2 RS, Gt3 RS 4.0): Information
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2013 Porsche 911, 2012 Porsche 911, 2011 Porsche 911, 2010 Porsche 911, and 2009 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The procedure for performing suspension alignment on the 911 GT3/GT2 is similar or often identical to the procedure used on the 911 Carrera (997). The main differences are as follows:
- Different adjustment values (vehicle height and wheel alignment values).
- The vehicle height of the 911 GT3/GT2 can be adjusted at the front and rear axle by means of the adjusting nut(s) on the corresponding spring strut or struts.
- Max. wheel-load difference from left to right on front and rear axle is less than 15 kg.
- 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. Refer to operating instructions supplied by the alignment tester manufacturer if necessary!
- Front-axle camber setting: Unlike the 911 Carrera (997), a basic camber adjustment is made by means of intermediate plates on the 2-part control arm of the front axle on the 911 GT3/GT2. A 1-mm-thick adjustment plate -arrow- is fitted as standard on the right and left in the 911 GT3/GT2. Camber adjustment (fine adjustment) is carried out at the spring strut mount in the same way as for the 911 Carrera (997).
- Check all wheels for clearance after adjustment and assembly work!
