Hey Folks;
I have a question, I have a C4S cab that I would like to take the 4X4 look out of,
First can I lower just the front end - and how?
OR
Second how shoud I lower - whose springs and which shop here in Calgary?
Third; has anyone done this and have you got any pics?
Cheers, Cam....

IMHO, the best set-up is to stay with a Porsche designed system. I wouldn't just lower the front and not the rear; the balance of these cars is what makes them Porsches. Also, just doing springs will cost the same in labour than doing the full kit. I'm going to go with the X73 package in the spring; it comes fully assembled and with HD motor mounts. your dealer, South Centre Fine Cars can install it quite easily and do the alignment to Porsche specs for you.

Rooney, you dont need to spend Big $$$$, you can get a Set of H&R Lowering Spring that Lower you car 1"-1.25" All Around... Spring go for $319 @ www.shox.com plus Install and Alignment which should be about $800-1000
PSS9's got mine done over 4 years ago, PSS10's came out about 2 years back... I am seriously thinking about getting H&R Coilover now because they go much Lower, SLAMMMED!! and yes EU Autowerks did the work

Stock and mine with $399 HR springs next to it.
Need an 4 wheel alignment after install and may need to recalibrate the wheel sensor to center. The car has been perfect with them for 100k km in the 6 years I've had them installed.
If your going for just looks this will do. If you want a true track suspension but not a full our race suspension like Motons go with the X73 kit.
I wouldn't bother with the pss9/10's if your driving in the winter and happy with the firmness of your stock suspension. If you want it softer then the pss9/10's have the adjustability but winter driving will basically prevent future adjustments when it ceases up.
