Default Bilstein PSS9 on a 944 / 51 / S2 / 68?

Can it be done?

Does anyone know of a Bilstein adjustable setup being fitted to our cars?

I know Koni, Leda, ..... adjustables are available but am wondering about the lack of Bilsteins.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Havent seen a PSS9 but you can use the AK1110/AK1111 for the front which is adjustable and the AK37354 for the rear which is a ride height adjustable coil over.

Bruce:

I recently had my Bilsteins in for revalving and asked this same question. The answer is no on the PSS9's and no on adjustable compression.rebound for our cars. The only adjustment is ride height. The demand is not great enough to justify the development according to them. I would think they could just modify the exising cartridge, and install in the same housings.

Keith, I should have clarified, the AK1110 is ride height adjustable but, as you state it is not adjustable for rebound.

Same as AK1110/1111 the AK1120/1121 are just valved differently. The rear they are selling is an AK37354. No magic here, they can be ordered in a few places for less than Lindsey sells them.

Yeah, it seems like Lyndsey raises prices every week.
