Description
The Dežru Spec-RS Coilover System for the Porsche 911 (997) Carrera 2 (C2) is engineered for drivers seeking sharper handling, precise steering response, and motorsport-inspired suspension control. Designed around the 997’s rear-engine layout and suspension geometry, the Spec-RS aims to improve chassis stability and driver feedback while preserving the engaging driving characteristics of the Porsche 911.
Featuring digressive monotube dampers, the Spec-RS delivers responsive low-speed damping support during braking, corner entry, steering transitions, and cornering. This helps control body movement and maintain a composed chassis while allowing the suspension to respond to uneven road surfaces. The result is a more predictable and connected driving experience for spirited street driving, canyon roads, and track-focused applications.
The system features 250 lb/in front and 450 lb/in rear linear HyperCoil springs, selected for a performance-oriented balance between front-end response and rear suspension support. Combined with adjustable damping, this setup is designed to improve steering precision, manage weight transfer, and provide consistent handling under demanding driving conditions.
The Spec-RS uses fixed-length damper bodies with an adjustable lowered ride height of approximately 30–45 mm, helping achieve a lower stance while aiming to preserve usable suspension travel. Pillowball front top mounts provide a more direct suspension connection, supporting precise steering feedback and alignment consistency.
Each system features hand-built, dyno-matched damper pairs to promote consistent left-to-right damping performance. The adjustable damping system allows drivers to fine-tune suspension response to suit their preferences for street or track use.

Performance Benefits
The Dežru Spec-RS Coilovers are designed to reduce excessive body movement and improve the Porsche 997 Carrera 2’s composure during braking, cornering, and acceleration. The digressive damping profile provides responsive support during initial steering inputs and weight transfers while maintaining controlled suspension movement over varying road 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 paired with appropriately tuned dampers, this setup aims to improve turn-in response, cornering stability, and control during corner exit.
The pillowball front top mounts provide a more direct connection between the suspension and chassis, making the Spec-RS suitable for drivers who prioritize precise feedback and a performance-focused setup. Adjustable damping and ride height allow further tuning for individual driving preferences and conditions.
