GT4 has Moton fronts, Öhlins at the back. They are custom built four-way adjustable RACING dampers though; the only similarity to the street-sport product is the brand name.

That and the control arms are different on the gt4 iirc so even if you did get your hands on the suspension, it won't fit.

Just wanted to let everyone know that there are indeed some products being developed for the M3. One for the primarily street users and one at the club racing level.

I can say that the technology in the club racing kit will blow you away. (but be prepared to pay for it too)

Does this mean some ttx dampers like the kit they just released for the 997
GT3?

Any updates on this? These things are more elusive than a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

While I'm shopping for my next coilovers this week, I was told that they are coming out with sth competitive to JRZ RS pro and Moton club sport for M3. They are going to use separate reservoir for the fronts, and traditional design for the rear's. Price would be somewhere around $5k.

TTX is already out for the E9x M3:

2, 3 or 4-way.

R&T Kit will be out around SEMA time, which is early November.

From what I have heard only the 4 ways are available right now. TTX40 front and TTX36 in the rear. Martin D might have more info.
Harold are you also a Ohlins authorized seller?

Nice! Hopefully we can hear some good reviews soon. I'm looking forward to the R&T Kit and how it compares to other current kits out there.

How did he like them?

SEMA is not until November so you don't need to chase the ghost forever.

TTX is ready to go now.

Good news. I have my fingers crossed. Can you confirm whether the R&T kit will be made available at or soon after SEMA?

Ohlins only informed us about their release at SEMA, but didn't mention public availability.

I ran Ohlins DFV before on a previous car. Loved that suspension. By far the most comfortable and best handling coilover. Looking forward to the M3 application.
