Leading evidence: 'Run bc' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run bc' (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.

Ended up getting a good deal on slightly used ohlins

Suggestion
A few of them argue that while they're great for the street, they could use better/stiffer springs for the track.

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.

At the risk of starting "yet another" type thread,
I'm looking for feedback on various coil overs people have tried
I'm leaning towards the KW setup, but anyone know the + and - versus Bilstein PSS 10 or other kits - Ohlins?
Any input greatly appreciated
For mainly street driven car
Quite a lot of the guys in the turbo forum on Rennlist enjoy the Ohlins as a daily driver. A few of them argue that while they're great for the street, they could use better/stiffer springs for the track.
Overkill. Daily driving Ohlins is like bringing a cannon to a knife fight.
Get a hold of X73 suspension from Porsche and be done with it. It is the factory tuned ROW sport setup. Perfect for what you are looking for.
Do you have a budget? What is the reason for swapping to coilovers? Tracking car? Or just want adjustability? Ohlins would be my choice since they are now available for our 996s. I have H&R coilovers which are not adjustable aside from ride height. Coupled with tarret camber plates they perform quite well.
In that case, contact Gert and see if you can still purchase 996 ROW sport springs and ask if there is a corresponding Bilstein shock that goes with it. Tell him that you are looking for a setup similar to a X73/X74.
The only thing left are the sways and you can upgrade to GT3 sways.
Many ways to think outside of the box just for a street car that will handle great!
No real budget
They all seem to be in the $3-4k CDN range
Thinking of swapping for handling mainly
This is a DD, 95% street time
Car has 93k km so suspension a little tired
If you are patient you may find a used set on here. I originally had Techart coilovers but had to replace them due to worn shocks. I managed to find an almost new set of H&R coilovers (mostly by luck) for $1K and a good local indy to install. Something like $1500 all-in.
Actually that just reminded me that I still have my Techarts in the garage. I should really send them off for a rebuild.
In that case you cant go wrong with the KW3s, PSS10s or Ohlins. All are adjustable so if you decide to firm them up for track days you can. Find a good indy to install, align and corner balance the car. Its a bit pricey but worth it. Shock mounts will probably be shot as well so while your in there...
My thoughts exactly, go with coilovers so I can get proper geometry setup
I find you can really notice it on these cars
I'm assuming ill do sway bars, end links and top mounts at the same time
don't the KWs come with upper mounts?
Anyone know spring rates on the KWs, Ohlins and PSS10s?
Motons and Ohlins, JRZ (fox) are magic shocks. they will ride like butter over the bumps and corner harder than you could ever imagine.
Bilstien is a good upgrade but I don't think street shocks need all the rebound and compression adjusters. Bilstien sport is the same construction minus the ***** to fiddle with.
There is Koni and you can never really go wrong for a low buck good performing shock.
I have AST (pre-MOTON) on my M3 and they are fantastic. never messed with ***** 2 clicks off full soft and forget it.
