the car looks absolutely gorgeous.
question: i have '06 997 C2 that was just lowered using Techart Springs @ Lucent Motors (love them). if we're using the same springs (assuming) what would cause the "S" version to sit even lower? different shocks?
trying to learn is all. thanks in advance!

any pasm equipped car is 10mm lower.
If I remember correctly on the techart box it says the springs lower the carrera S by 15mm and the Carrera by 25mm. So I would guess that in the end both models should be pretty close. The 4S would sit the lowest due to the fact that it is the heaviest.

rzundel, your car looks great.
I also have a 2006 C4S cab and had it lowered with Techart springs, but when I had them installed I noticed they were actually H&Rs, not Eibachs. Does anyone know if Techart springs are actually H&R or Eiback, or both?
The reason I ask is because I actually wanted the Techart spec springs which I understood would lower the ride nicely, but I ended up with H&Rs which I think are too low (for me, at least). I'm just wondering if these H&Rs I have are actually rebadged Techart springs (with Techart specs) or if the shop just installed a regular set of H&Rs...

Techart has been using eibach, and all the techart springs I have seen so far are white with eibach imprinted.
You must have gotten some other springs unless if techart started using H&R also but it wouldnt make sense.
I think gemballa, cargraphic and i forgot which other companies use H&R

It sounds like they installed H&R springs. If you asked for techart and they installed H&R you should have concern. Where did you get the work done? Get them to fix the problem. I did alot of research before making my decision. I went with techart by design, not by chance. The ride has been perfect.
