My front bumper is only 5.75" off the ground now. With the driveways, speedbumps etc. in CO, if I lower it much more I'll be scraping more then I already am. I now am going sideways at those locations as is. I want to upgrade my suspension with coilovers, I track my car 1-2 times per month. This is the main reason to upgrade. I already have GT3 sways and adjustable droplinks. Thanks a lot.

If you are tracking 1-2 times a month, I would recommend the JIC Cross. You can keep the ride height at about the stock level but still get the incredible track performance with a comfy street ride. The JIC has the adjustable front camber plates and rear pillowball mounts. This will give you much more feedback in steering response. Unlike other suspensions, these you a monotube damper that is VERY fast reacting like a moton. The dampening is 16way adjustable. I ran these on my 996C2, 996TT, and now 997TT.

The PSS10 kit is nice, but I would not want to be track driving as much as you do on them. Please stay away from the H&R kit. The KW V3 is in the same class as the PSS10 to me.

I have these on the floor at $2600.

i have the H&R kit and just for your information, even with the fronts at it's highest setting, it's still pretty low
