    OK, just saw your last post. The aluminum doors on the RS N-GT is still an open question. I know I read this somewhere.

    Mark,
    Here- http://carrerars.wordpress.com/ and here-http://964uk.com/Documents/Cup%20Car%20Article.pdf, I won't vouch for accuracy. I have never heard that N/GT cars had aluminum doors, please let me know If you can confirm this one way or another. I bought a set of RS door that were thought to be Al but they were steel.

    Also wanted to complicate things further by saying there were two versions of the 9.5" Speedlines. Same part number, same offset, but different spoke width. And the difference is quite noticeable visually.

    So I see why everyone gets confused- reading through some my Porsche books, they get all the details wrong.

    So true. How many times have we seen even the Factory get it wrong.

    My 964 RS NGT M003 has steel doors and the usual mag Cup design wheels.

    However, I run the car on original 17" Cup wheels 8"x17 and 9.5"x17. These are aluminum NOT magnesium!

    Keep up the speed!

    OK, these are the things that make a guy crazy. I sent an email to Steve Patti at Euro RS. He had the yellow RS N-GT for many years and this was his reply;

    "Yes - the M003 Competition cars ("Club Sports", N-GT) has aluminum doors and hood."

    Anatol, can you help with this??

    Mark, my car has steel doors and aluminum hood. And I know it came like this from the factory.
    Keep up the speed!
