Default Boxster 986 Suspension for Track or Autocross

Thanks in advance for looking!

These components were used for about 25k mi of street driving and 3 autocross seasons on my white 2001 Boxster S.

Prices are local pickup (Springfield, VA) or plus shipping.

SALES PITCH: THIS IS GOOD STUFF! JUMP ON IT!

OEM Porsche GT3 5-way adjustable front swaybar + Tarett droplinks $300 see http://www.tarett.com/items/boxster~...sba-detail.htm

Tarett 4-way adjustable rear swaybar + droplinks $200 see http://www.tarett.com/items/boxster~...sba-detail.htm DISCLOSURE: This is a prototype bar, approx 19.5 mm vs. the 19.1 mm bar that Tarett put into production; thus somewhat more stiff.

The chart below the photo applies to the specific sway bars being sold here.

JIC/Cross coilovers, 7kg front, 8kg rear spring rate, 15 position damper adjustment, height adjustable, front works like having camber plate $1000 see http://products.vividracing.com/jic_...1013465881.php

Good morning Mick,

Sent you a PM for the sway bars. I'll take both of them. See you this evening to seal the deal.

Hey Mick! Long time no see/hear. GLWTS. Those are great prices on some proven parts.

I guess this means there are not going to be too many more autox's for you. Good sale coming up on some Pings or Callaways maybe?

Cheers!

In case folks were wondering, this suspension plus Mick's driving were always a Top 5 result at AX events.

I had the honor of driving Micks car on several occasions at our AX events over the years and was amazed how well an already good handling car was made even better.

I would encourage anyone with a Boxster who AX or DE's to consider these quality, proven components for your car..

As for Mick.. We miss you buddy!

Thanks, Dave. I know your kind words are not merely gratitude for having the opportunity to kick my butt in my own car on several occasions. Miss y'all, too!

Thanks. Per PM, I'll get you shipping cost info tomorrow afternoon.

Now if somebody just goes for the Pièce de résistance: the JIC coilovers....
