  1. Hi Guys I have a very nice Midnight Blue 2003 996 coupe with 60,000kms (Australian Spec which I think is ROW) which I have recently bought It has 18" GT3 wheels, and I'm thinking of lowering it. I don't plan to track the car, i just want a bit more aggressive look, and and slightly firmer handling Questions: 1) what springs do you recommend that will lower the car, provide a slightly firmer, but not ridiculously hard road ride, some say eibach, some H&R, some Cargraphic (which are HR I think) 2) Can you re-use the factory shocks (I think they are OEM Bilstiens) 3) Is it worth revalving/rekitting the factory shocks if I go that path? ( I did this on my older air cooled 911's when when dropped the height, was a great result, though many years ago) 4) eibach distributor has offered a eibach B12 Pro Kit which has Bilstein B8 Yelo coilovers for $2000 which seems like reasonable value, though I suspect the spring and revalving route will be much cheaper You thoughts greatly appreciated Also toying with a muffler change as that is stock also, Agency Power, Snell Performance, Cargraphic are a couple I have seen, I know the Fabspeed is popular over there, thoughts also appreciated Fairly experience on the older air cooled 911's of which I have owned a few, but my first venture into the water cooled land of Porsche
