Center lock system help


Does anyone know where to get hubs for a pin drive center lock conversion? I have searched around. I’m hoping I don’t have to machine them myself but if it comes to that I guess its SolidWorks time. If no aftermarket manufactures make them I could always get some from the dealer for the cup car or the CGT. Maybe I should do a full CGT wheel conversion. I bet that would cost a decent amount.

Anyone with any info on the hubs would be greatly appreciated!

i am doing the same right now. Talk to christian at PSI motorsport in Germany. He sells the whole kit from a company called Gallade. Kit is about $4500AUD. The Cup car parts dont fit the turbo or GT2

Thanks for the info, I will look into PSI and that kit. All the wheels are BBS in RE142 RE1005. Hopefully I can find a place that sells blank hubs without lugholes drilled. I need them for a few cars of different makes. Every time I search for center locks on google I get a bunch of bicycle crap. I’m assuming that items such as these don’t have a lot of demand because they are really only pertinent for track use, and if put on the street I could see liability issues arising. I knew that my best chance of getting an answer was on 6speed. All the other boards seem a little dimly lit if you know what I mean.

I was mainly concerned with finding the hub adapter or stub. They will be for a couple different cars that will compete in various racing series. I already got the wheels taken care of thanks to BBS.

19000RPM,

talk to 9ff, they have a centerlock kit with what i believe is what you are reffering to as pin drive. I'm using the version for the 996 narrow body and they make one for the 996 widebody's as well (for use with ATS/BBS rims).

give eurocarboutique a call..they used to be the USA distributor and might have a set left..if not, 9ff in germany directly

Why go to Europe if you live in the US. Contact Cary Elsinlohr @ ERP. His shop is located in Signal Hill, CA. Cary's speciality is Porsche suspensions. One of the best in the business. I believe he goes by carnut on the forums.

He has everything you need for centerlocks. Why pay more if you don't have to.

I didn’t even know that some of these companys were out there. Thanks for all the help. I’ve checked into them all. Does ERP have a website?

I don't know. I have never seen it. I can send you his number if you can't find it.
