I know everyone's case varies and I know you're not coming at me... it was a good question. In my case, I'm a weirdo and I analyze things like a weirdo. Ended up paying 500.00 for the set and all they really need are the hats. Feels would be the next best alternative to say a set of Ohlins or PSS10 being the most popular. Are a set of Feels 700.00 better? I don't know? Will I able to outdrive a factory GT3 suspension with the other Tarett upgrades? Absolutely not. By the time I'm done refreshing everything, the cost would be around 2500.00 which includes the LCAs and all the Tarett parts which I believe to be pretty damned good. GT3 sways are also in that number.
@TheChunkNorris Definitely not coming at you, brother! Or anyone seeking to do it, for that matter. I think it makes sense for your car, and if I owned your car and was upgrading suspension on it, I’d probably do the same as you are doing. It just fits with the overall theme.
I really was just asking in general to see what people thought.
Been combing thru this thread an re-reading it a few times. Could someone help me confirm that I can use the GT3 rear swaybar endlink with the OEM C2 swaybar if I have the endlink bracket on the rear damper?
Or do I still need adjustable rear endlinks, regardless?
Although i am not 100% i would plan on a set if adjustables. I have the gt3 ohlin suspension with gt3 bars and i would think the stock c2 links would work for some of the holes it may force the bar into the control arm as u make it tighter (move to the inner holes).
thanks for the reply! i know the stock C2 links wouldn't work but I will have a set of the GT3 links as well... most threads I've read the user didn't have the GT3 links so they opted for adjustables in most/all cases.

I believe the gt3 mount on the c/o is much higher then the mount on a c2 strut so i doubt the gt3 link would work. U may have to assemble and then see what the distance is to order the correct ones. I dont think u will find a direct answer on this. I would think u would have a better chance of the c2 link working then a gt3 link?

If you can mount the bracket on the damper then it should work with the longer links.
Can anyone tell me where I can get the front & rear spring perches?
thanks,

There r no spring perches on coil overs? Give us more of a description or post a pic of what u need. I have a set of gt3 front coilover top plates if thats what u need?

Sorry for the lack of info; I see now that my post must have gotten cut off when I inserted the pic of my track honey.
What I’m searching for are #6& 7 in the diagram. Porsche calls them spring hangers.
#7Fronts: 99634351190
#6 Rears: 99633352992
The rears seem to be available but fronts are listed NLA.
They r a little hard to come by. I believe they r the same spring retainer used by ohlin and bilstein so i would check with vendors that sell those priducts.

I’d check the ID of the springs you I tend using before buying the Ohlins or Bilstein parts rather than the OE items. I can’t remember whether the OE springs are 60, 65 or 70mm ID.

This is what I’m working from.
