GMG is a very reputable shop indeed, congrats on your project completetion again!

Take pictures of your new suspension with wheels off!

Very nice set-up - the car looks great!

Just curious, did you think about making the switch to a GT3 instead of modding your car?

Just was in SD too. Would have stopped by the shop. The car and the shop are so sick.

I am a mod freak! I knew that a modded GT3 would be a lot more expensive than a modded 911S. If I had bought I a 997.1 GT3 the suspension mods I would have done probably would have been identical...same for the wheels. Then add a GMG center exhaust section...etc etc....

Little update:

I picked up the car with the Motons at full stiff. The ride was honestly pretty good but low speed bumps were very noticeable with a little bit of wiggle. Highway driving was comfortable and really about like the Damptronics in "sport". However, I have been driving to work everyday so I needed to do something about the low speed performance of the shocks. I dialed the Motons back from +14 to +6 (front) and that really made a difference. Now, the ride is honestly a lot like stock with PASM in sport. There is a little more abruptness to some of the larger cracks/bumps in the road but I am very happy with the adjustability of the Motons.

Suspension and setup pics soon!

Jason

Very nice rims! I love the concave look at the rear! What is the off set for that setting?

Nice looking ride! I have a GT3 with some of the GMG World Challenge upgrades. I'm curious about your ride height. Would you be able to provide any measurements (fender well to floor, fender well to center of wheel, etc)? I know these measurements don't give a true gauge (due to tire pressures, wheel size, etc) - I'm just looking for a rough comparison. I've got the Moton clubsports and I'm considering lowering the car a bit. Maybe we can compare notes.

Can't wait to see the suspension/setup pics...
