Hi all

final question so i know now that i need hub centric spacers in 5mm front & 7mm rear

but i cant find hub centric in these sizes they are all called shims and ideally need black ones with new longer black bolts and locking nut bolts

Ive also heard Porsche make their own official kit

Porsche do a 5mm shim with a screw to hold it but they are heavy with Porsche tax so would suggest looking at other options the shim is ok but you want the ones with spigots see example below. theres a company that does them in black but cant for the life of me remember their name , it was in a spacer thread on here about a year ago.

I think it may be these:

Hes contemplating, saying its too expensive, so i told him to sell his 997 and buy a Nissan Micra where the springs are cheaper. He didnt like what i said .. but hes thinking about it.. ill edge him on it...

I guess no one is in a rush to get these springs, if we leave it longer, the more members we have the cheaper we get them, christmas is coming up so i dont think anyone is gonna be doing a springs change during winter?? Well im not in a rush.. more members less prices.. :thumb:

Gentle Bump, anymore takers ??

I'm very tempted. Can anyone advise if the Techart springs create a slight nose down stance please.

I'm after a small ride height drop but wish to keep a neutral stance. I don't know who's car this is but it has the perfect stance I'm after.

my techarts were negative rake, whereas the H&R do have a slight rake. see the midnight car looks flat the aqua car is slightly raised at the back, we are not talking 70s jack up kit but is is very slight and you can see it in the pic :grin:
