Description
The Dežru Spec-RS Coilover System for the Porsche 911 (996) Carrera 2 (C2) is engineered for performance-focused drivers seeking sharper handling, improved chassis control, and consistent feedback under demanding driving conditions. Designed around the 996’s rear-engine layout and rear-wheel-drive configuration, the Spec-RS aims to enhance stability, steering precision, and driver confidence during spirited road driving, time attack, and High-Performance Driver Education (HPDE) track events.
Featuring motorsport-focused digressive monotube dampers, the Spec-RS is designed to deliver strong low-speed damping support during braking, corner entry, and rapid transitions while maintaining controlled compliance over uneven surfaces. Its performance-oriented damping characteristics prioritize chassis composure and predictable handling under high lateral loads without depending entirely on increased spring stiffness.
The system features 250 lb/in front and 450 lb/in rear linear HyperCoil springs, selected for a performance-focused balance between front-end response and rear suspension support. When matched with appropriately tuned dampers, this spring combination aims to reduce excessive body movement, improve weight-transfer control, and maintain predictable handling through corner entry, mid-corner loading, and corner exit.
Fixed-length damper bodies and adjustable ride height allow drivers to establish a lowered, performance-oriented stance while helping preserve usable suspension travel. Performance upper mounts are designed to support alignment precision and consistent suspension response during demanding driving.
Each system features hand-built, dyno-matched dampers to promote consistent left-to-right damping performance. The adjustable damping system allows drivers to fine-tune suspension response to suit their driving style, tire setup, and intended road or track use.

Performance Benefits
The Dežru Spec-RS Coilovers are designed to help the Porsche 996 Carrera 2 maintain a stable, composed chassis during heavy braking, cornering, and rapid changes in direction. The digressive damping profile aims to provide strong support during initial steering inputs and weight transfers while allowing controlled suspension movement over changing road and track surfaces.
The 250 lb/in front and 450 lb/in rear spring combination is intended to balance front-end precision with rear suspension support. When combined with suitable damping and alignment, this setup aims to improve steering response, reduce excessive body roll, and promote consistent handling during aggressive driving.
Adjustable damping and ride height provide flexibility for drivers seeking a more performance-oriented setup. For track use, final suspension settings should be matched to tire choice, alignment, vehicle modifications, and available suspension travel.
