How much does the subframe move up relative the chassis?

Lowering the front of the subframe reduces anti-squat. I remember reading that a stock 993 is ~90%, I think a more typical target is ~50%. Could be that the A/S was reduced to compensate for super stiff GT2 springs to improve traction or make the cars easier to drive?

what kit did you buy, Rennline, ERP and FVD all have 2 different versions of sub-frame kits, one tilts and one is flat. You want the flat version. From what I have seen the Rennline kit is the best and most complete.

I got JMR's Rennline set... If I read the Rennline site correctly, their tilt kit should be configurable ether way (with or without tilt), correct?

From memory it raises the subframe between 5 and 10mm...

The tilt kit is for anti squat, however it is to compensate for the HP and Torque of the GT2 motor.

The rennline kit can be installed as either the tilt or solid (no tilt kit)
