Porsche 997
Coilovers
Upgrading your Porsche suspension is a great way to extract the maximum performance potential from your car. If you use your Porsche for mainly fast road, track or race use then your suspension can definitely be optimised. Upgrading to a high quality coilover will provide your Porsche with the optimum ride height setting, multiple damping settings to help fine tune the behaviour of the car to suit your driving style perfectly and a spring rate that matches your use of the car and driving style.
Camber Adjustment
Increasing camber on the front wheels of a Porsche is a must in order to make them handle properly when pushed hard on the road or on the track. Camber shims insert into the lower arms to lengthen the lower arm and therefore increase the camber. Camber plates, bolt on to the coilover and provide this adjustment to allow the optimum settings to be installed to your setup. When pushed hard, Porsches are notorious for wearing the outer edges of the front tyres substantially due to not having enough negative camber as standard. With the use of camber plates the tyre wear can be returned back to normal as well as increasing overall grip from the tyre too.
Adjustable Suspension Arms
When setting the optimum geometry settings on the Porsche issues can be introduced where the limitations of the standard adjustment methods prevent setting the car up with the best setting possible. With the installation of some adjustable arms, the adjustment range is increased dramatically, allowing the best possible setup to be used on the car. Also, once lowered, Porsches struggle to regain ideal geometry without the extra adjustment offered by the adjustable suspension components.
