AST Suspension 93-97 Porsche 911 (993) 5300 Series Coilovers (AWD)

If you're looking to get the most out of your 1993-1997 Porsche 911 (993) AWD on the track, AST Suspension's 5300 Series coilovers are a serious consideration. These aren't just about lowering your car; they offer advanced adjustability to fine-tune your suspension for optimal performance. The core of this system is its 3-way adjustability, allowing you to independently control rebound, and both low-speed and high-speed compression damping. This level of control lets you dial in your car's handling for specific track conditions, tire choices, and driving styles.

Each corner features a MONOTUBE coilover design with external reservoirs. This setup is built to handle the significant side loads and braking forces encountered during aggressive driving. The inverted strut design adds strength where it's needed most. You can adjust the rebound, which controls how quickly the shock returns after compression, through 12 distinct positions. Similarly, you can adjust low-speed compression for gradual suspension movements and high-speed compression for rapid impacts. Balancing these settings can significantly reduce body roll in corners, improve steering response, and keep your tires firmly planted for better traction. The kit also includes camber-adjustable front top mounts and solid rear top mounts, giving you further ability to alter your front-end geometry for improved grip.

This set is designed for serious track use and offers the flexibility to customize critical aspects of your suspension. You can adjust spring rates on these dampers to match your desired setup. While these coilovers are built for performance, careful tuning of the compression and rebound settings can also help manage ride comfort on the street, though their primary focus is track performance. This is a comprehensive system for dedicated Porsche 911 (993) owners aiming for championship-level handling.
