Here are some new pics with the Bilsteins installed. I decided to start at 1" drop as a compromise for clearance. I may go lower, but I drive it daily. The Bilsteins changed the car's handling alot. It is more neutral, lighter effort and more precise. Sport mode is usable, not just harsh. Here's the link:

Looks Perfect!

Enjoy,

 

looks great... Are you finding it a lot harder to get around now that it is lower?

 

Just being extra careful entering parking lots/crossing drainages. That is why I stopped at an inch. I put on a new GT3 chin spoiler (black unpainted) that handles the scraping better than the painted one. So far not so bad. I can't say enough about the perf. upgrade the bilsteins gave.

 

Great look Arzo. I'm already scraping with the sport package leaving the driveway . Scratched the front bumper hitting a curb stop - Boy that hurt.

 

Arzo,

Beautiful drop! What's the standard height with the Bilsteins prior to the drop?

Is the ride like PASM stiff?

 

Thanks. I didn't check the height out of the box. They have a fairly long thread, so the range is pretty good. In standard mode they are a little stiffer than stock but a pretty smooth ride around town and precise on the backroads. In sport mode they are not as harsh as stock, but they give a very solid/connected feel. I find myself going to sport mode a lot. Definitely more than I did on the stock setup

 

Great! Looks like I will be looking at these Bilsteins soon too. Thanks.

 

Good luck. Well worth it IMHO!

 

+1, I have had mine since Feb, the car is so much nicer with the Bilsteins.

 

looks much better!

 

Just perfect. What a difference an inch makes.

 

Car looks great! I added the pics to your gallery on our Porsche Customer Car Gallery Here. I am happy how your car turned out with the HRE Cseries and Bilsteins. The car should now handled alot better. Think about adding the H&R sway bars next as well. K&N Intake is on the way! To get the most out of the car, Softronic flash I would recommend.

Thanks Dan for all the help. The car is coming along. What do you think about the height? I have the Softronic, love it. Can't wait to try the intake.
