I recently bought a 2000 GT3 Mk 1. The car is fantastic but "speed bumps" are a real pain. Can anyone recommend a height adjustable suspension upgrade or point me to someone who can help?

Many thanks

What is very very important is the wheel alignment of the this car. The rear should have enough toe in to stabilize. Depending on what you do you with the car you could go to more extreme settings for handling optimizations. Suspension wise we produce sets for this car as well. Tyres are of great importance also. I run a Spa with michelins and pirelli zero c or corse. The corse is a real great tyre for this car.

Assuming you mean Porsche GT3 then I know Nitron were producing or looking to produce a kit. Have a work with them, if they use your car as a 'pattern' then you may get some money off!!

JZ Machtech in Kings Langley (M25, J20) do a fine fully-adjustable (bump/rebound/height) system with K&W dampers for the GT3.
If you're only looking to raise height, however, which obviously would make your car less well-suited for the circuit, then perhaps you wouldn't ever have the need to adjust B & R.
Their number is 01923 269 788. Ask for Steve or Jonas.

stop before you buy, i have driven GT3s with various different suspension kits (as a PCGB development driver) the best option is a bilstien PSS9. this kit is ride/h adjustable and bump/rebound adj. gives you soft option for road, & hard for track.
