Just wondering if anyone has recomendations or information regarding spring and damper upgrades for a 91 SE. Manufactures, model #'s, part #'s, links, etc. I keep hearing about Porsche components and Penske components. Can anyone educate me on what these two have to offer?

Classic and Rally Services (CARS) do Leda adjustable suspension for the esprit:

I believe also JAE in the states have a penske kit?

Spax also do adjustables to fit, but i have heard that they are not as good as other alternatives..

Also, try SJ Sportscars - they list adjustable units for your car.. www.sjsportscars.co.uk/

cheers

Thank you guys for the info. But does anyone know of any manufactures who sell springs separate from the dampers? A few months ago I decided to try the Spax. For normal street driving they are fine but for the track I can't say the same. I've yet to decide on replacing the dampers, but none the less the springs need to be replaced.
