Do a search on 'Tom W' he recently installed a g50/32 in his 964 race car.

There are lots of diffferent gearing choices most may be inappropriate for you purposes, consider wisely

Mine isn't in yet, so I can't say with certainty, but it should be a simple bolt in. There are issues with trying to put it on an older car, but the 964 appears to be a simple bolt in replacement. I have replaced my old worn out stock shifter with a Fabcar shifter, but the shifter should also be a simple replacement. I would replace the linkage as the rubber in an original '91 shifter is likely to be in sad shape. Get a new 993 RS shifter or an equivalent. (The Fabcar shifter is not what I would use in a street car.)

Heed Bill's advice and give careful consideration to the gear ratios you choose.

Only you can decide if it's worth it. We don't know why you want to do it. It will not be cheap (but then what is with our cars?).

My /32 is now in the car. There is some fabrication work that will be done to the nose to mount it due to differences between the 993 and 964. Not a big deal but a requirement. I still look at it as a "simple" bolt in, but it is not a direct, do nothing replacement.
