Description
The Dežru Spec-S Coilover Suspension System is engineered for the Porsche 911 (997) Carrera 2 (C2), delivering a balanced combination of improved chassis control, adjustable ride height, and everyday driving comfort. Designed around the 997's rear-engine layout and suspension characteristics, this system enhances cornering stability, steering response, and overall composure while preserving the compliance needed for road use.
Featuring digressive monotube dampers, the Spec-S system provides strong low-speed damping support during braking, cornering, and directional transitions while maintaining controlled compliance over uneven pavement. This damping approach helps reduce excessive body movement without making the suspension unnecessarily harsh, making the system suitable for daily driving, spirited back-road use, and occasional high-performance driver education (HPDE) track days.
The system combines 250 lb/in front springs and 450 lb/in rear springs to provide a performance-oriented balance of front-end responsiveness and rear chassis support. The spring rates are matched to the damper tuning to help control weight transfer, reduce excessive rear squat under acceleration, and maintain predictable handling during demanding driving conditions.
With a 25–30 mm adjustable lowered ride height, the Spec-S allows drivers to achieve a lower, more purposeful stance while aiming to preserve usable suspension travel and predictable handling. The fixed-length damper bodies are designed to support the intended suspension configuration, while linear HyperCoil springs provide consistent response throughout suspension travel.
The Spec-S system also features OEM-style upper mounts to help retain a more comfortable, street-oriented driving experience with reduced noise, vibration, and harshness compared with many solid-mounted alternatives. Each damper is hand-built and dyno-matched to promote consistent damping performance across the suspension.

Performance Benefits
The Dežru Spec-S coilovers help the Porsche 997 Carrera 2 feel more composed and controlled during braking, cornering, and acceleration. The digressive damping characteristics provide support during initial steering inputs and weight transfer, while controlled suspension compliance helps the tires maintain contact with uneven road surfaces.
The 250 lb/in front and 450 lb/in rear spring combination is intended to provide front-end responsiveness alongside the rear support required by the 997's rear-engine configuration. When paired with appropriately tuned dampers, this setup helps limit excessive body movement and rear squat while maintaining predictable handling characteristics.
The result is a performance-focused suspension upgrade for drivers who want a lower stance, improved chassis control, and confident road manners without making the vehicle exclusively track-oriented.
