i believe the c4 and tt use the x73, which is the counterpart to the x74.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Can somebody explain the difference betwen these two suspension upgrades (other than an additional $350 for the X74)? And which would you recommend for a weekend driver that drives hard, but doesn't track the car. Thanks. Gary

POST 2Original post

What ever you do ,get H&R sway bars they are about $500 and they make a big difference.

POST 3Original post

I went with the X74's. The M030 will drop your car 20MM front and 10MM rear; the X74's are 40/30. In addition, I think the X74's are a little stiffer and easier to install as the spring and shock are a one piece unit. Both kits come with sway bar replacements. Talk to Gert at Carnewal. He's very helpful - [email removed] Dave

POST 4Original post

The two suspension use the same sway bars. They have different shocks and springs. The X74 lowers about 1 inch and the M030 is 1/2 inch. The x74 is about 10-20% stiffer. I use the M030 which is just right for the street. I think its a little soft for track events, yet it still handles good. IMO the extra 1/2 inch is helpful going up driveways, and since you don't track cars get M030.

POST 5Original post

The X 74's on my car dropped it 1 1/2 inches in the front and 1 inch in the rear.

POST 7Original post

no. i think it's explained above. the x74 is the 'sportiest' suspension option offered by the factory for a base 996. i believe the c4 and tt use the x73, which is the counterpart to the x74. with the x74 the car also sits a 1/2 inch lower than with the row m030. the german magazines tested all three (stock, mo30, x74) and the x74 yeilded better track times. if i could put it on my '00, i would have it instead of the row m030.
