[giordmaina]

So, my car is non m030 1998 C2, I want to refresh and upgrade but the price from 911 design is £2800 I have seen on the forums in only 2017 people buying new for £775 direct from porsche?

What's the best place for me to purchase, cheers

What are the M030 kits you are listing on your web site for £1200 Matthew? Is that an old price?

12 - 18 months ago OPC were selling M030 kits below the £1000 mark. I guess that has changed. Although after this crisis stock may need to be shifted. Carnewal in Belgium used to be quite competitive on prices and often mentioned on petrolheads.

I am swapping my tired M030 out for coilovers. Likely, suspension arms, drop links, tie rod ends, top mounts will need changing which mounts up costs, then labour and alignment.

Its from "£1200", if you click on the option/model you can see its the C4 set only at that price.

Hi Yep i found the tiptronic prices are about £1400 on design 911 but not much use for me. Ive decided to go Coil overs, ive just ordered a set that allows me to keep the cars original height i will lower i guess 15-20mm where as most other kits seem to do a 30mm - 40mm drop which i didnt want.

Fingers crossed its still comfy to drive :/

The only difference with a tiptronic set and a manual set is the rear spring rate. The tip box is heavier and requires stiffer springs. Must be cheaper to buy the tip kit and then add some manual springs!
