I'm looking for a set of X74 suspension (dampers and springs + any other bits) for my 1999 Porsche 911 C2.

Thanks!

 

I have the OEM set on my 2000 996C2, i.e. all four springs mounted within their respective Bilstein dampers. I bought these new from Carnewal when they were still available, and I believe they were installed on my car in 2010. Might have as many 15k miles on them, but feel no difference than the first time I drove the car with them.

I struggled with whether to go with the PSS and other after-market kits, and decided to simple go with Porsche and related engineering given the testing that would have been performed. I believe the X74 was designed as a 'Clubsport', non-adjustable arrangement.

The X74 is designed to work with the M030 anti-sway bars which happened to come on my car, and this an AWESOME plug-and-play approach which does not require tinkering. Is also is a DIY upgrade, though you'll need a full alignment before driving it since toe and camber will be way off.

The only reason that I'd let this setup go is that I don't expect to be DEing much in the future, will be taking more road trips with this car, and I have back problems that are worsening with age.

I'll likely be reinstalling my original M030 setup, though perhaps with Eibach springs to bring it down from the clouds a bit.

Let me know if you're interested in my X74. I don't know how to approach pricing these days, but we can figure something out.

 

This is an old thread.

Just wondering if you ever sold your X74 setup?

 

Thanks for your interest. I do still have it. Am just now getting close to listing a bunch of things--BBS wheels, Agency Power roll bar, OEM GT3/2 carbon fiber seats, full OEM Mk1 aero kit (arctic silver), GT3 red 6-point harnesses, new Dunlop ZII tires, etc. I'll probably list it all on eBay where I've had good luck with drum/percussion items.

Nonetheless, I'd be glad to send you pics if you'd like. I'll be away from the house most of the afternoon, but I could get back to you this evening.

And I'll have to look into pricing. Haven't looked in quite a while.

 

I noticed your signature says that you are located in Indiana. I am in Southern Indiana perhaps we could get together

 

Is there no provision here to send private messages?

 

Yes, getting together would be fine. I'm near Muncie, so we're maybe 3 hrs. apart.

I honestly don't know about pm'ing. I imagine that there is, but I've never used it. I will look around the site as soon as I can.

 

Yeah, your a little bit north of me, I'm down near Evansville. I wouldn't be opposed to taking a ride. I hate to broadcast details but here ya go 718-930-8974
