The Porsche 911 964, built from 1989 to 1994, is the last narrow-body air-cooled 911 with major body revisions: wider front and rear tracks, coil spring suspension replacing the earlier torsion bar setup, and ABS as standard on later cars. The 964 Carrera RS, with 260bhp, a stripped interior, and a lightweight body, became one of the most sought-after Porsches of its era. Even in standard Carrera 2 form the 964 is capable of generating cornering forces that expose the limits of the original leather bucket seats.
Part 86.94.16/26 is Recaro’s sub-frame for the Porsche 911 964. The part code uses forward slash formatting, which is the correct reference for this older Recaro catalogue item. At £336, this is a premium sub-frame kit, which reflects both the complexity of the 911’s floor-mounted seat rail system and the rarity of the application. The kit mounts to the OEM floor points and carries integrated sliding runners. No fabrication is required.
These sub-frames work with Recaro base-mount reclining seats and base-mount bucket seats. Side-mounted competition shells need separate adaptor bars. One frame per seat. The 964’s transmission tunnel and floor profile are specific to that generation of 911 and differ from the 993 and later water-cooled cars.
