Use gt3 or h&r coilovers if you want adjustability

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 just bought a 2003 C2 with the X51...has anyone seen a road test on this car?
has anyone tried an exhaust system and ran it on a dyno for a C2 with X51?
thanks,
jason
Better than a road test... I have one! IMO, the dyno's are conservative to the car. My experiences under controlled circumstances are th car can accelerate in the 50-140mph range even with a stock TT. This is from time spent on the track at Limerock. Off the line, it is slower, in part due to the lack of torque and the lack of traction. The car does have incredible power, almost too much for the street sometimes. ver easy to induce a power slide even with DOT-R tires. I think the C2 with X51 is the way to go, but it is missing a few things.... the suspension is lacking, but easily fixed with the Porsche X74 parts which turn it into quite a animal. The regional Porsche rep drove my car the other day and was amazed by the combination. I agree. the only thing missing now is the limited slip diff. Unfortunately Porsche does not offer it and I am not willing to split a sealed tranny to install it. So for now, I will have to do without. Where are you from and what other options did you order it with?
I noticed you have the GT3 seats....
i understand that the GT3 seats CANNOT be ordered with the car. It only can be ordered thru the exclusive dept.
Is this true?..and if so, what did you do with your orginal seats. Seems like a waste to have to buy the orignal seats with the vehicle.
I bought one yesterday (as a daily driver) and put 400 miles on it (drive home). The car is awesome and wonderfully responsive. A great balance of handling and power. It just feels so much more powerful that the regular one. This makes my eighth Porsche and, other than my GT2, the best one by far (beating the TT by a nudge(IMO) given price and handling considerations).
The package :
Seal Gray
X51, 030, Sport seats, Sport mufflers, 18" inch wheels Digital Radio
PSM
This car makes me (and my wife ) so happy to drive. I predict that it will become one of the most sought after 911s of all time.
I think the X51 package is well worth the money. It just cotinued to impress and impress all the way home.
You will really enjoy i

i actuall just walked in and bought the car i didnt order it. i was looking for a new turbo, C4S or modena 360 and got frustrated..when this car came up i bought it. car has a few bits like 18 inch wheels and skirts as well as bose. i just ordered GT3 seats also. thanks for the input on the car..im in toronto canada
That is the M030 option, also known as sports suspension. A good option if you autox you can run stock.
Where in Toronto, I'm up there frequently, will be there on Wednesday thru' Saturday this week.
Ed, you say that "off the line it is slower due in part to lack of torque and traction". Slower than the TT or the regular c-2? I get my arctic silver x-51 in jan. Thanks -blustem

i live at the donalda golf club york mills and don mills. im picking the car up from pfaff porsche at 5 on thursday.
is the M030 adjustable so you can lower the car?
I tried to order the GT3 seats through exclusive but they turned it down. I had the dealer install them. I ordered sport seats in full leather with logos specifically to have something good to sell. They sold quickly and for a good price as they were never used.
The 030 is the normal sport suspension. In the US it is stiffer than the standard and has larger sway bars. There is a ROW 030 that is appox 20 mm lower. There is also an X74 in ROW that is 40mm lower. I have the X74 with GT3 adjustable sway bars and love it. None of these are really adjustable. The other choice is to use the GT3 or H&R coilovers if you want adjustability. Unless you intend to race seriously and adjust for every event, I would suggest one of the non adjustable sets.
