Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 3Original post

The DFV system is a good all rounder, but biased more towards road use as opposed to track. If that's what you want then great, otherwise have a look at the KW range.

POST 5Original post

anonymous said: [redacted] Ah but by your own admission the worst can happen at any time and isn't possible to predict. Advice still stands, chocolate engine move it on. Besides the next thing you will 'bore' everyone with is page after page of pointless discussions about suspension settings. I can just picture the drivel now!

POST 9Original post

cmoose, any idea on the cost for these? Also, has anyone fitted a set to a 997 GT3?

POST 10Original post

anonymous said: [redacted] Toss company with a toss website IME (it's slower than a stunned slug) they couldn't even get a set of wheel spacers out on time, and when they did arrive, they were wrong If the KW's aren't floating your boat J, I'd go with a set of these : http://www.carnewal.com/products/P87/p87009/Bilste...

POST 11Original post

I'd be having a chat with David Masters at Bilstein UK to see if he'll sell you the dampers you want (be they PSS9/10 or B16) without their preferred springs. You can then do your due diligence on spring rates as I did when I had the 3 way adjustable Ohlins built for the Manthey GT3, then get the springs from Eibach UK who are on the same industrial estate as Bilstein UK....... I know someone else who's gone this route, the results were rather impressive........
