To anyone looking for a visual of what the drop looks like with the springs and Sport PASM, here is an iPhone photo (as opposed to professional photographs so there is no question this is how it looks in real life) I took this morning (car is filthy). I love the drop, have no rubbing (running 305 PSSs in the back) and the ride quality is excellent!!

Sorry about that, when I post from the app it does a duplicate post and then I tried deleting the duplicate, and that started more issues.

Check now.

Looks great! Not too extreme.

Also, love the color contrasts...

You running with spacers installed?

How much lower than spasm was the drop? I have spasm and could see going slightly lower maybe another 10mm like the GT3.

I believe it is an extra 20mm drop. I'm not sure if the car has fully settled since I've only had it back a week and maybe put 200 miles on it so far.

From Techart's website:

Spring Kit

consisting of:
- 4 sport springs
- 2 helper springs
- assembly instructions
- TÜV certification

for standard chassis approx. 30mm lowering
for PASM chassis approx. 20 mm lowering

Digging your car and the stance. To my eyes, it looks like a very conservative drop.

So, since you have S-PASM, your ride height reduction is approximately 10mm, correct?

Also, just remember I didnt pick necessarily an even surface. But really, where the hell is an even surface anyways. I think because the SPASM is 10mm lower than PASM and the Springs drop PASM by 10mm, you're probably right -- its a 10mm drop.
