PSS9 settings?

I just ordered a set of Euro PSS9s from Gert and should be on by the end of next week.

What settings for ride height and dampeneing do you recommend for a daily driver on fairly descent streets in Jacksonville? Maybe GT2 height or something a little bit higher.

I set mine at GT2 ride height, make sure you have the car corner balanced and as far as dampening settings the sweet spot for me is 4 front and 3 rear
I am going to try 3 front and 2 rear next
I find the stiffer I go the more I like it
Hope that helps

I would start with 5F/4R and experiment from there. In general, you will want to keep the front at a higher number than the rear in order to attempt to reduce some of the inherent understeer in the car. I currently have mine set at 1F/1R and I am looking at other suspension options. I am a bit of an extremist and the PSS-9's are not cutting it at the limits for me.

I just dialed in 7 all around and it is a very smooth ride on northern NJ roads. Had it at 4&5 and was alot stiffer. The great part is u can changeit in 10 minutes, so I am checking out all different combos

Alex,
Glad we think alike.

Chris,
I know. That is one of the setups I am looking at.

Hehe we both like black, we both think the PSS9s are too soft/cushy and we like the GT2 bumper done right....
If I remember right our alignments are very similair too

I've ridden in Bob's 993TT with Moton's and those are fantastic. Of course there's CJV and his JRZs too... Finally there's the inbetween stuff like the Cross/JIC with monoballs etc... Tough choices for sure.

I have the JIC/Cross and they aren't too soft or hard I think for street and track use. I think they're the best for the $$, not the best but worth the $$ too..
