Default Lowering my 997

I love the ride height of the 997/S, but my standard 997 looks like a 4x4 in comparison. Do any of you guys know of a good coilover suspension kit that will allow me to lower to car about 1.25"? I've used H&R and Tein in the past, but I wanted to know what the fellas on this board recommend.

BTW - Based on the threads on this board it seems more people are having problems with 997/S than the standard 997. Is this a correct observation?

I need to do the same with my 997.....I am scared though after my 996 had H&R springs and the ride looked awesome but was to harsh for longer trips and the wife hated it!

I just need it to go down a little. I will speak to Jae Lee a Porsche suspension guy here who is one of the best and post results for you monday.

wouldn't installing aftermarket components be a problem with cars equipped with PASM?
