Just got a 997.2 C2S. Suspension question?

My parents just traded their old car in for a fairly new 997.2 C2S.

It has all sorts of stuff like driving dynamic lights, sports seats etc. Missing is the sport chrono but since it is a manual I don't think the effect is that huge compare if lacking in a PDK car.

Mods are on the way already. Looking at the Sharkwerks by pass pipe. Saw it on their website as well. Any feedback on their pipes?

Lastly, I have a friend selling me his 997.2 GT3 RS stock suspension for dirt cheap. He used it about a year prior switching to Olins. I plan to buy it, anyone here knows regarding the fitment issue?

Much appreciated and pics will follow once they pick up the car tomorrow.

As I promised but a little late on the photos.

Seriously no one can give me any feed back on the GT3 suspension? I have done lots of searching on other forum, guess it haven't been perform before.

Anyways, the suspension isn't up for grabs anymore. So perhaps techart springs will do.

Since we couldn't sell the 996 Turbo, is getting a complete engine rebuild.

Here is the car with the engine out. According to the shop, a FVD distributor, the TT is getting FVD first 4.2 liter kit. It was previously used on their race cars as a prototype kit, but now is made available.

Tranny is out getting clutch and flywheel, think will add a LSD too.

The shop said after all tuning is done with the internal built, turbo etc, should be around 800hp. Lets hope that is the real figure.

The c2s is gonna get a wrap later next yr. Thinking Riviera blue. Black is too hard to maintain

That's a beautiful C2S, I think if your going to go with a blue the Riviera is the way to go, but I'm biased . I look forward to seeing the 996 build. I'm not 100% sure on the suspension, but it looks like it should. I would also consider H&R Sport Springs.

I personally haven't heard that, the H&R's are designed to work with PASM.

How about coil overs? Nothing too hardcore, any recommendation?
