What's the easiest way to tell if your suspension is stock vs the RoW? Ride height? Sway bars? The struts/sway bars look identical from what I have seen online. I was told my car had upgraded suspension when I bought it but I have nothing to base that on and it looks stock to me. Can't tell from driving the car since this is my first 911. (a 1999 C2 cab). I have 19's and the top of the fenders are at 27.5". The overall look of the car appears lower then stock (because of the 19's?) but higher then some of the pictures I have seen online of RoW equipped cars.

Finally got a chance to inspect my suspension. The colors are green at the top of the coil and orange/yellow at the bottom. see attached pic. Car is a MY99 Cab / Tiptronic.

Front sway is 24mm thick if that helps.

Thanks!

Thanks Loren. The std front sway bar is 23mm (I thought) and mine is 24mm. Would Porsche have used a heavier bar on a Cab Tip as standard?

Yes, Porsche suspensions are tuned to the cars weight - so there are different components for Coupe and Cab as well as Tip and 6 speed.

So if someone wants to change the suspension you need to tell the parts people coupe or cab and Tip or 6 speed.
