The AST 5200 Series Coilovers for the 2005-2012 Porsche 911 3.6 2WD (997) are high-performance suspension components designed for precise handling and adjustable ride dynamics. These coilovers feature 2-way adjustable shock absorbers that allow independent tuning of compression and rebound damping, enabling optimal setup for various driving conditions. Built upon the technology of competition-grade 3-way adjustable shocks, they incorporate an advanced compression adjuster inspired by designs used in the American Grand-Am series. The design emphasizes quick and straightforward setup, making it easier for enthusiasts to fine-tune their suspension for improved stability, cornering, and overall performance. Constructed with durable materials suitable for demanding driving environments, these coilovers provide a significant upgrade over stock suspension components.

Designed specifically for the 2005-2012 Porsche 911 3.6 models with rear-wheel drive, these coilovers are compatible with vehicles equipped with the specified engine configuration. They serve as direct replacements for factory shocks, offering enhanced adjustability and performance for street, track, or spirited driving. Installation is straightforward for those familiar with suspension upgrades, and the kit includes the necessary shock absorbers with adjustable features. These coilovers are ideal for drivers seeking a customizable suspension setup that improves handling precision and ride quality, whether for daily driving or competitive motorsport applications.

Overview

The 5200 Series for the 2005-2012 Porsche 911 3.6 2WD (997) are 2-way adjustable shock absorbers which are based upon competition 3-way adjustable shock absorbers. The 5200 shock absorbers are adjustable in compression and rebound.

The design of the compression adjuster is an evolution of the compression adjuster we provided for the American Grand-Am series for the last few years. The 5200 shock absorbers were designed to achieve a quick and easy set up, allowing separate adjustment of compression and rebound.

The 5200 Series AST uses an external canister. Throughout testing and competitions, the 5200 has been praised for its performance and capabilities, surpassing other major, more expensive brands and setting a new standard of 2 way damper. Its no surprise that the 5200 is fast becoming a favorite damper amongst race teams and track day enthusiasts world wide.
