We have sold the H&R springs to PASM and NON PASM 997 users on this board. About 20 of them and the springs work the same with no issues. Always instock - http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/p...oducts_id/7504

so would it further improve handling? Can someone answer what benefits would it make?

thanks, Noob.:P

I would be careful with that, if they worked for both, why did H&R relase different springs for PASM?? There must be differences to make H&R spend the money on R&D for new springs no??

To Flying Low, Evan and the reat of the gang. Installed the H&R springs today(part#29188-1 with PASM). Looks just like Flying Low's Imola Yellow. Nice drop. GMP-you either don't understand or your're misinformed. No issues with modification. Will post some pics after springs settle. Evan-tell Rhonda thanks-also liked the SS brake lines-much beter pedal feel.

Nice pics! Fyinglow!

How big is your drop? that driveway does not look steep at all.

The driveway is about 150 ft. long. You're seeing the flat part of it. The entrance to the drive is about a 30 degree angle and it's a bitch. I've already scraped the "Imola Yellow" paint off the bottom of my front spoiler.

Ouch!... must be FAB crib though ...150ft long driveway!

Since the car is lower now do you feel the front end tighter at high speeds [instead of light] or about the same?

would it handle better with h&r? do you think it would pull 1g on a skidpad with h&r?

Here is my take on the springs. I have had the H&R's on for about one week. The ride is definitelty not the same as stock as some people have said. It is much more harsh. Not unbearable, but very similar to having your car in Sport shock mode all the time. I don't think I will be pushing that button too often, no real need for it. The car looks awesome. It is unfortunate that we can not have our cake and eat it too. The factory ride was much nicer, but the lower look is also much nicer. Everyone at the dealer, that is where I had the springs installed, liked the lowered look. The tech liked the ride the service writer thought it was a little rough. Time will tell for me. I will try to post pics this weekend.

Quoted Directly From H&R's Main Website (Germany):
29181-1 Porsche 911 Carrera, Carrera S Typ 997 mit Sportfahrwerk, (nicht für PASM + Originalfahrwerk)
Farbe blau, Tieferlegung [mm] 15, Baujahr: ab: 08.2004 Gutachten

29188-1 Porsche 911 Carrera, Carrera S, incl. PASM, Typ 997 (nicht für Sportfahrwerk)
Farbe schwarz, Tieferlegung [mm] 30, Baujahr: ab: 08.2004 Gutachten

Trust me, they ARE avilable, we get them direct from H&R Germany, so maybe H&R USA hasn't recieved any yet, beats me, but they have been out for months and we have sold/installed them on about 30 cars now...

seriously folks there might be some misinformation around but we've already done 5-6 997S' with PASM with these H&R springs. Seriously, H&R _has_ a kit for these. It's also the same set that Cargraphic has.

AMG ETR

For real, I don't know what this whole conspiricy is, we have been selling these here in the US since maybe March.... I find it hard to believe that H&R USA does not know about the kit, but from the sound of it they really don't??
O well

LOL it's a conspiracy theory!!! It's probably just the fact that they're such a large company one hand hasn't quite caught up with the other yet...
