Euro M030 Sport Suspension Kit or X73/74
Looking at this from Carnewal:
P96 Euro M030 Sport Suspension Kit
I want the Euro spec vs. the US spec M030 because the Euro kit lowers the car where the US spec doesn't. The Euro spec is strangely a good amount cheaper than the US spec.
Will this fit/work on my 2003 996 C2?
Anyone have any before after pictures of this installed. I'd like to see what this does for the wheel gap and ride height before I pull the trigger.
Would it be worth looking into the X73/74 at all? I don't want to go too low because of my driveway. Nor do I want to make the ride any firmer than it already is with my stock suspension and 18" wheels.
TIA.

Jenner,
The ROW M030 is going to lower your car to stock euro height, which is the height you see the Porsches in the brochures.
The X74 is going to lower your car to GT3 spec.
The X73 is for the Turbo and C4S, not the narrow body.

Ok Jenner,
Its hard for me to help you out with that because my C4 CAB was just U.S. suspension and it felt kind of soft at times, yet is had a comfortable ride, I never changed it because I didnt want the CAB to be too stiff and I had the aerokit and ground clearance would have been an issue for me. The X73 in the Turbo is perfect for us as we track the car and its still very streetable, it is noticeably firmer but not overkill. If you just want to lose some wheel gap and firm it up a bit the ROW M030 is a good upgrade, the X74 will firm it up more and bring you down to GT3 spec, a friend of mine has it and its low and he doesnt have an aerokit either, not sure if you do or not, speak to Gert at Carnewal he is a big help also, keep me posted on your choice.

Here you go:
It's an 02 C4 Cab (mine) with ROW M030.
I have some pics with 18" and some with 19" wheels.

Ride is not bad at all IMO

Jenner, - If you can hang out for about 2 weeks....My new C2 will be delivered with an Aerokit and I am fitting the X74 Package....
I will be able to take a B4 and after pic of wheel-arch clearances etc. Note that I am also getting the Sport Techno rims which are 11" wide on the rear, shod with 295 tyres.
Clearance should not be an issue unless your vehicle has to traverse a lot of rough terrain or steep driveways etc...Ride height should drop at the front around 40mm and at the rear around 30mm from the stock US ride height (around GT3 Ride height I assume)
I purchased the X74 kit from Gert at Carnewal when he had a sale on it a few weeks ago (saved a couple of hundred dollars)
Note the pic and compare the spring sizes relative to the 030 pic you have posted!
