Question Coilover suspension question

Damn, i just got through reading Rayn's thread on the mods for the shootout. My turbo is covered and up on the rack for the winter but after drooling over Rayn's car I had to go out to the garage and just sit in my baby. I have so far been able to keep my mod addiction in check but you guys make it hard.

Soooooo... I decided to buy myself a Xmas present. My car has H&R springs only. While the car sits and looks nice it rides a little hard. I was all set to order PSS9's from Stephen but then I saw this. http://www.tcdesignfab.com/Bilstein%20996%20PSS9.htm

Stephen, what's up with that? Can anyone out there who have PSS9's installed comment on the clanking. Do H&R coilovers make the same noise? Does the installation of any coilovers require additional suspension parts in order to keep the toe/camber in spec? Any help or comments would be appreciated.

Thanks all and Merry Christmas!

Richard

Richard,
The Euro version had a different upper mount support and would cause all kinds of racket every now and then. The US version does not do that.

Stephen,

are you an authorized dealer for PSS9s? That's one of many things on my mod list... If so, please let me know the price.

Thanks!
