Just pulled the trigger on RoW M030

[Lucky]

I put the row m030 on my car 18 months ago. Loved it with the stock 17" wheels. Upgraded to 18" wheels recently and love the combo even more! Just my humble experience, but I think this suspension package works best with 18's. Grip level is fabulous and the ride is still very good.

By the way, when I bought the package from Sunset, I paid $974. But that was almost 2 years ago.

Talk about fast shipping....woke up this morning and there was the kit all boxed up on my porch.

I have never received a package from the UK in three days??? Wow!

Looking forward to seeing the "after" photos.

I've been planning to do the same upgrade when it's time to freshen up my suspension. Ever since I bought my F355 Spider, the Boxster's stock suspension feels a little dead.

By the way, that's a beautiful car you have there. How on earth did you find one with so low miles on her?

I love Ferrari's....and think the f355 is just one stunning vehicle!

Well...? Pull the trigger on the knuckle busting and picture-taking already.

Almost there...ordered a set of TurboWerx headers and they are still on back order. Doing both mods as the same time. Hopefully the headers will be made this week sometime. They were having trouble getting the flanges produced.

Really sucks too looking at the suspension sitting in a box now for over two weeks.

Getting close. RoW came in a couple weeks ago and the waiting is over now... Headers came in Friday... Talk about some nice quality. Thanks Marc if you see this post!!

Now off to the shop this week!

By the way, I washed the Box today and I had to post up some picts. It's really hard not to love Guards Red!!!

When I was building my 64MGB I used to get all the major parts from England at a much cheaper price than available here and as with quick shipping as you said. I once got a 5 speed conversion kit , including trans, within a week. They like cars over there. Ed

I'm considering ordering the kit from Design 911 as well. Is the package Design 911 has for sale the same as the M030 ROW package available through places like Suncoast and Sunset?

[jwade]

Yes, it is the complete kit. I was going to post some pictures later today now it's installed. No regrets!

Thanks for the info. Yesterday Sunset quoted me a lower price than Design 911 (around $980 + $40 - $50 for shipping) for the M030 ROW suspension so I ordered it from there. Still, based on what I've seen so far I wouldn't hesitate to buy from Design 911 sometime in the future.

From the sound of it the suspension kit should be at my door within the next couple of weeks.

Can't wait to see this as I'm hoping to do the same thing in the next year or so!

[brp987]

So...Maybe you could give your box a little rest and put up some before/after pics?

I have been pretty busy and on top of that, we have had bad weather here so I have not been able to take shots. It's windy as hell today too. Maybe late this afternoon if the wind dies or tomorrow.

Trust me when I tell you that I should have done this mod a long time ago.

With that being said, I'm pretty much done with modding for the time being. Don't really know what else I could do to it now...except maybe a softronic reflash, IMS update or a gt3 or ruf body kit...

I'm pretty happy with the looks as-is. Would rather spend my money on performance and although the IMS issue is in my mind, I'd rather not spend the 3500 bucks for "reassurance" and a new rms and clutch with only 20k miles on the car.

But if my engine does happen to grenade on me, it will go to Jake R. for one of his 3.6's as that would be the ultimate upgrade with the new suspension setup.

Does it sound like I'm praying for that to happen or what??? I could only imagine 350+hp behind my seat...has to be simply breathtaking!
