S versus M30 suspension
I have a '02 S and am thinking of installing the M30 euro suspension package, is it worth it? Anyone know what the difference is in sway bar size, spring rates etc? I know it lowers it a bit but what are the other benefits
I can pick up the parts for $975 on Friday so any fast response is appreciated
Thanks
Thom

I have M030 and the car is definitley more settled...The ROW set up lowers the car 20mm front and 10mm rear.
I have 18s and travel in the car extensively with no complaints...even from my wife. I've done coast to coast and back, and I'm about to do it again for the Portland Parade.
Do it...you won't be sorry IF you are a sporting driver.

..oh yeah, that M030 is on a '04 Anniversary, but I've had it on all 3 of my Boxsters. I fitted the '99 after I bought it. It is a DIY, IF you have a lift and are a little bit of a wrench.
Otherwise a shop should be able to do it in about 5-6 hours max. You'll need a re-align too.
