Yeah, I was wondering that myself. And still kicking myself in the *** for not ordering it.

The discussion will go on and on I'm sure. Hell I started one of them myself and now I have all the answers.

 

^ exactly!!!! i love the SPASM....i love PASM.....and pretty much all things 911, but they can and will scrape. i went the other way; i didn't like the non-SPASM lip and put the SPASM one on!

 

Both interchangeable. With or without SPASM



SPASM spoiler ^^



Standard spoiler ^^

 

Has anyone retro-fitted the SPASM springs onto a PASM car? Thanks!

 

Probably, but SPASM doesn't only consist of springs unfortunately . The swaybars are larger along with bushings and drop links. Not sure but some have also stated that there is a different programing of the pasm shocks and/or a different shock. It's a well spent option for performance. It would be great if someone could offer a comprehensive list of parts.

 

I have 2500 miles on my SPASM Carrera and I've yet to scrape it, though my son managed to scrape both front and exhaust tips once...

I've scraped my X73 cars once each, both times my own stupidity/impatience.

 

I scrape mine on the regular especially if I am not looking or paying attention...normally its on driveway entrances with unusual grades/departure angles. Matter of fact it almost always in these occurrences. Does it bother me..not much as long as I am aware of it and watch where I drive. As for other courses of action...add another Sport PASM spoiler when needed...they're about $250 or so and its an easy DIY I think also.

 

I wanted to see if I could consider the OEM SPASM springs as an option for lowering springs rather than Techart, etc.

 

They only thing I've scraped is the front flexible spoiler which is a $250 part- no biggie.

 

If I didn't have the SPASM on my car I would for sure try and source out the parts to retrofit it. It probable is the best performance enhancement one would want since its OEM. I would start with the springs and swaybars. Worry if I missed something later.

 

I've never seen the retrofit done. Would be a good question for Elephant Racing. They post on 6Speed and maybe here? They are Porsche suspension specialists.

A lot of guys who have done aftermarket springs end up lower than SPASM. Not a good look IMO.

 

I have an as- new in box SPASM spoiler lip that I was gonna install on my 2013 991.1 C4S Coupe ( even took off the std one ..see attached pic ) but never did as my 2016 991 GTS Club Coupe was gonna arrive within a few months and just put it back in its box , where it still sits .
PM if interested ...prefer Bay Area / local buyer ...will install it for you free if price offered is right, since dealer will charge you nearly as much in labor as the spoiler itself to install it if you are not handy with and have right tools . ( I orig paid a couple hundred bucks plus tax for it new from local Bay Area dealer )

 

Handling and ride qaulity should be the first concern. Appearance is nice, but functionality is key. Spasm is good and an improvement over pasm. Once I drove a KW H.A.S equipped 991, I had to have it over my Spasm car. You can adjust the height, the handling is superior and yes the ride is improved.

 

I'm not a fan of coilovers for the street. Best thing about SPASM. It performs 98% as a good as a coilover setup but feels like a Cady on the road.

 

I like the supple ride as well. H.A.S are not coilovers. They are adjustable springs. Factory shocks are in place. These springs provide a ride more progessive than stock spasm with a adjustability on height.
