HO HO HO again.

I stinking give up. I was looking at the KW's but Buddy has had some leaks and I am just going to go with the Pss9's. Todd (EVO) said if I didn't like them he would buy them back - can't beat that for standing behind your product. Also, racer 63 had pretty good things to say about the set-up.

I really like adjustability and full control (3-way) but I will try the PSS9's. I am not going ot go wiht the camber plates as it appears that adjustability at the track just isn't there.

I'm confused. Did you think we sold the Euro models? That's gray market and Bilstein NA would have my butt.

I only sell the U.S. versions.

If you really want a great shock with adjustability, try the Motons. They are unreal. I run them (Clubsports) on the street with VERY stiff springs, and the ride is no worse than running PSS9s. Then on the track, there is no difference. With our cars in the 600HP range and with big brakes the Bilsteins are way beyond their limit when driven hard. And even if you revalve them, they have limited capability for adding stiffer springs.

Motons just kick butt. They are not for the average driver though. Most people with PSS9s have trouble with the simple single adjustment. With Motons you can get double or triple adjustables and then you can vary the nitrogen pressure in the shock... All very cool if you know what you are doing.

I think I am winning Sharky over to Motons after a ride in my car last week...

viperbob,

You say sharky had a ride with your Moton equipt'ed car? I wonder what his thoughts were since he also experienced a little twisty ride experience in my JRZ with GT3RS suspension equipt'ed car?

Buddy,

The Motons Clubsports run around $4000 for the 996TTs (993TTs are $3000) I believe as the fronts shocks require a special disconnect fitting on the front line for the external reservoirs. The Motorsports are triple adjustable and are in the $8000 range. These are a pure racing setup with aluminum bodies, and finer adjustements on the settings. They both have the same range of adjustment. Then you just need a set of springs for $2-300.

Chad,

Ask Sharky.. BTW, the J from JRZ is the guy that went out on his own and started Moton.

I found on rennlist/public/classified ads that rennsport.com has brand new PSS9 (US) for 996TT for $2250. I just ordered my set and they should be here tomorrow . They said they have plenty in stock. Contact Sam@rennsport.com, he was really nice and helpful and got my order out the same day.
