Suggestion
The best way to change the suspension to the RoW M030 is to change the shocks and springs to the RoW M030 suspension.

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.

I have a 'o2 coupe coming in soon and I really like the older chromed exhaust tips much better than the new oval ones (which are stainless, btw).
Feedback appreciated...
The big oval exhaust tips as offered through Tequipment will only fit the 996 cars built before 07/01.
The ovals exhaust tips for the MY'02 cars should be available soon.
Also on a related note, I ordered this car with the 030 sport suspension and want to lower it to ROW height, is it possible to get just ROW springs for '02 cars?
Thanks again for your replies Gert...

The best way to change the suspension to the RoW M030 is to change the shocks and springs to the RoW M030 suspension.
If you plan to get the RoW M030 anyway, you better order the car with the standard suspension and install the full Euro M030 kit afterwards.
Also, for the 996 Coupe, the new "M option X74" will soon be available through retrofit parts.
Option X74 lowers the RoW cars 30mm all around and can be installed on the MY'02 Coupe's.
Thanks for the fast replies Gert...
Problem is I can't make any changes to the order now and I dont want to buy the whole RoW M030, is that "M option X74" the only way to go now?
Gert,
First off thank you for the Euro M030 sport suspension I recently order from you. Best mod. I have done to the car. But, question what is the "M option x74"
Thanks
-George
There are two factory options for the
MY'02 RoW
996 Coupe's :
M030 (10mm lower)
or
X74 (30mm lower)
Again, these two options only apply to MY'02 RoW 996 Coupe's
The RoW M030 is already available as factory retrofit kit for the MY'02.
At this time, there will be no factory retrofit for the X74 so the only way to get this suspension is to buy all the parts seperately.
Dealers over here call it the "M-option X74"....
.
Christopherus Magazine discussed the RoW 030 vs. RoW X74 a couple issues ago. It's ( X74) known internally as " the minus 30 " i.e., 30mm lower than std ROW.
Fabspeed Motorsport will soon have 2 styles of tips for 2002 996s. The 1st will be the Fabspeed true oval tips look at website for full great pictures.
the 2nd tip that we will produce will be the Porcshe Techequipment big chrome tip that were available on all 1998-2001 996s. These will be a nice alternative too. For a picture just look at any Porcshe big chrome tip and youll have what fabspeed also produces.
