FS: Bilstein PSS9 coliovers for 996TT!
Category: Steering & Suspension
Price: $1500
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits: Porsche 911 996 Turbo
Location (State): CA
Item Condition: Used
PICS ADDED: Bilstein PSS9 for 996TT for sale. Price $1500 obo, these came off my car due to upgrade. These PSS9 were installed by a Porsche dealer on the car during 2004 and have less than 14kmiles on them (the car has 23kmiles). Stock shock lifetime is 100kmiles and these are advertised as having 4xtimes stock lifetime. Using some judgement I would guess these will last at least to 150-200 kmiles depending on usage.
They are in good condition due to the low miles. The damping force is symmetrical at any adjustment setting. The car gets VERY firm on full (hard) setting and very cozy and very soft on minimum (soft) setting.
I have tracked the car with these 3 times during 2009, car has proven very fast on these shocks. Correctly dialed in, the shocks would enable me to do the following:
BW13 CW: 2.00 on 225 & 285 wide(narrow) Yokohama tires (a hard tuned GT2 ran 1.59 the same day with 315 R888).
Cali Speedway infield: 1.11,5 on 235 & 295 R888 (best time that day, ahead of a couple of built SCCA GT3 racecars on slicks - yeah it was funny a race BMW guy got mad when I passed and tried to follow me into a hairpin, missed his brake point and ran off the track). In for instance Speedventures events, no Turbo, tuned or not, has been driven faster on this track looking at all times from 2007, 2008, 2009.
Cali Speedway Roval (super speedway): 1.49,2 on 245 & 315 Hankook RS2 high performance street tire.
- The ideal coilover for street and occasional track (proven by numerous 996 TT owners)
- More control when putting your hp to the ground!
- Very responsive on track
The only reason I want to sell these Bilstein high quality shocks, is that I moved to a more hardcore track package.
First come first serve!

No issues, I just ran Cali Speedway two weeks ago and car has never been better. I just want separate adjustment possibility for compression and rebound.
For fitment pls check Bilstein fitment guide or maybe someone else can chime in.
PM an e-mail address and I can show a few pics from this year - they are still on the car awaiting delivery of another setup but will be dismounted first week after New Year.

KW V3 and then test out springs to find something that will fit the rest of my setup as good as possible (swaybars, camber arms, wheels and tires).

An update regarding these PSS9.
From now until Jan 1 the car will be worked on for other upgrades and be dyno'd, so I can't remove the PSS9 during this time (the PSS9 are still on the car).
I will still take offers in the meantime, just be aware delivery won't be until the first week of January.
