The ROW springs are lower? Wouldn't mind doing that at all.

Glamour shot...

There used to be an "X73" euro sport suspension package available from parts resellers, particularly carnewel.com, at a great price. It was a great bank-for-the-buck package with a set of lowered Porsche factory springs, shocks, and sway bars. Unfortunately it's been several years since they've been available. Now our choices are primarily either full coilovers or H&R Sport springs with Bilstien B8 shocks.

ROW non-X73 springs, even if slightly lower, are going to be difficult to source at a reasonable price and wouldn't be worth the hassle of installing IMHO.

X73 did not include stay bars. It consisted of springs, shocks, and motor mounts.

X73 was a factory option for RoW 996 Turbos, and the parts could not be purchased from U.S. Porsche dealers.

I purchased my X73 package from Carnewal in Europe.

Was underneath my car today and found this. Sure looks like an aftermarket rear swaybar and end links to me! Any idea which one it is? So my car might not be as bone stock as I thought...

Did you check to see if your front lower control arms are adjustable?

docwyte

Not yet. How do the adjustable ones differ in appearance?

Carlo_Carrera

Adjustable LCAs will be a two piece unit held together with two bolts. To adjust the camber you loose the bolts and insert shims.

So the lower A arm will be split in two then? I'll look
