The matching plate is used with the correct color coded spring.
Leading evidence: 'Use with the correct color coded spring' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check theirs' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

I was hoping somebody that has this could check theirs.

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.

Kevin,
Yeah, I've seen that article. However, because components are specific to model/trans this article only would apply to a 6 spd coupe. I was hoping somebody that has this could check theirs.
Thanks
Thought I would add a little more detail (the colors to look for on cab M030 parts) to Dell's solid post (seriously, you are one fast dude, Dell!
)
Porsche RoW M030 sport suspension kit:
Total kit = #000-044-500-15 but ensure new front bumptstops
Springs (#996.343.531.12 504 Front green+red, #996.333.531.12 504 or #996.333.531.40 504 Rear green+red depending on VIN)
Shocks (#996.343.041.16 Front green, #996.333.051.13 Rear green)
Bumpstops (#996.343.301.02 Front, 996.333.105.03 Rear)
Stabilizer bars (#996.343.701.21 Front, #996.333.701.13 Rear)

Would an indy know to do this step? How important is it? I've never heard of this before. Do the DIYers have this done with the alignment?
Depends on the indy, but any solidly qualified indy will know to do this. Frankly, I would ask of and remind both indy and dealer mechanics before proceeding with installation.
Gert tells me his P96 Euro Sport Suspension Package does not include bump stops. He says they are the same for standard and M030. (although he didn't specify ROW vs. USA)
Bill
Yeah, that's why I noted down that it's probably worth getting news ones if the car has any sort of higher mileage on it. But it's not crucial, just the way that I would go after speaking to my mechanic.
The Pano article lists different bumpstops for the rear, however. Standard 996.333.105.02 (66.5mm), and Sport 996.333.105.03 (53.5). (for all configurations and markets) And from reading the article, these bumpstops are critical to the whole spring package working as a unit.
Bill
The article that Kevin listed above from Panorama has it perfectly. I just never combed it together because I have an '00 cab. Click the link above (ah hell, here it is:
http://www.pca.org/panorama/sample_article_3.html
) and you'll see everything clearly listed for each type of car.
Of course, if Dell hadn't edited his post, you would have coupe data. Then again, it was likely pre-2002 coupe data.
That's the problem. I have talked to both of them, and get conflicting information between them and what I see on the forums, the PET catalog, etc.
Now my belief is that when the USA PET catalog says "10mm lower" they mean with respect to the ROW normal ride height.
Bill
It's either -10 (RoWM030) or nothing at all (USAStandard or USAM030). USA is nothing at all and RoW is -10 lower. But in all reality it is much more than that as it is -10 R and -20 F. Mine came in at about 15-17 rear and 22-24 front.
