Default WTB: JRZ or MCS Coilovers
Looking to upgrade my revalved coilovers (by Dan Jacobs) to something that has more adjustability. It's just too stiff for me to drive anywhere else besdies to/from and at the track. Anyone has a set lying around, pm me. Thanks.

if you plan to run jrz/mcs/ohlin/penske and the like. it' s more than just shocks/springs.
you need rear upper monoballs and preferably change out all bushings.

I learned today that 996 Cup or higher (RSR,etc.), uses shorter rears than 996 GT3 street car. Be sure to get 6GT3 street car length setup.

I followed Mootys advice. Just close eyes when writing check.

I have the shorter cup shocks but it doesn't seem to be a problem... probably because I'm stiffly sprung. Fronts are also shorter.
