Hi everyone.

My 996.1 C2 needs some front suspension work carried out to cure the odd noise and as part of a refresh.

My car is a road car which "may" end up doing the odd track day in the future but I'm looking for a largely road based setup. My car currently has a factory optioned M030 setup with previously fitted H&R springs. Long term I'm considering a fresh M030 kit, Bilstien B12 kit as I've had good experiences with this kit in the past on other cars or potentially the Ohlins R&T kit.

I'm currently trying to choose which front coffin arms and control arms to use, I've contemplated polybushing my current arms but I'm not sure if more compliant OEM bushes might be more suited?

I'm fully aware of the TRW supply issues so have been looking at Meyle control arms, what are people's experiences with these? Or is there a better alternative or should I revisit the polybushing option?

With regards to control arms, I can't find many/any reviews of the EPS control arms with polybushes. I've read that this alters the type of bush fitted to the OEM arms, does anyone have any feedback, experiences or recommendations regarding these?

Thanks for any advice.

Kind regards John
