I found myself ALWAYS in sport mode with my factory Porsche suspension....so I used the JIC coil-overs(NON-PASM)....and have them set to firm!
"How is the ride"...it is stiff/firm BUT the coil-overs allow you to adjust that BUT because my car is "just-a-toy"...I don't mind the more firm ride.Oh and our roads are really good here where I live!
To do the suspension again I would go with the Bilstein Damptronics that are PASM compatible!

Cheers,

Stacy

Good to know. Are the Bilsteins the only ones that are PASM compatible? I heard a few instances of quality issues, but may have been a bad batch. I like putting the car in sport mode most of the time, but switch it off when the roads get really rough (So Cal has its spots)...I tried to take it out every few days so it is a toy too and lower and fatter does seem to fit the bill for me. With the body kit, the wheel and the suspension setup, i could have been fooled that it was a wide body!! Yours looks fantastic and I will have to to restrain myself with every ounce I have to be patient and do it one step at a time. Thanks for the feedback.

I guess since you don't drive your car, you might as well be a low rider
