Default Suspension

Mod bug had bitten me. Thinking of changing the suspension. Any suggestion?
The car for daily drive only. No tracking.

Anyone know how to get a new remote for the car?

Bilstein PSS-10 seems like a good all-around suspension choice. Remote. Ugh. Dealer? Try Sunset.

I'm going down the suspension path now too. I'm not into tracking after the last episode, so mines getting the Bilstein HD treatment.
PSS10's are also about $7500NZ.

For street use only I would go with Bilstein HDs.

Thanks. Sorry guys. Bilstein PSS-10 and Bilstein HD? What's the difference? Ant particular parts number for the HD? Road here are generally pretty bad. I am looking for comfy ride not too harsh. A

What is your goal for changing the suspension?

Search harder! Especially on the 993 board. Lots and lots of posts there.

I have had both the MO30 with HD's and the PSS10. The PSS10s are superior by far. Softer if you want to dial them back, or very stiff if you want aggressive. And all that you have to do is adjust them yourself.

I am just on my way home from Orlando where we were at the PRI show. I met with a few damper manufacturers and find there are interesting alternatives to the usual Bilstein / Moton / Ohlins installs. I am hoping to have some info soon on a affordable dual purpose damper much like the PSS10 only high in quality.
