Product Information
The 5100 Series shock absorbers for the Porsche 911 GT2 or GT3 utilize inverted / upside down technology. The inverted design is race proven technology and produces an extremely strong damper, providing better suspension geometry under heavy lateral and braking loads as seen in a road and track environment.
The 5100 Series shock absorbers give your car a better performance than the standard twin tube design. With the 5100 Series suspension you can adjust rebound with one knob. The adjusting platform allows you to adjust the ride height of your car. AST suspension shock bodies are specially designed to keep maximum stroke, even with a lower ride height.
HOW A MONOTUBE DESIGN WORKS
Monotube design is essential for performance. The oil and nitrogen are separated by a floating piston, and allows the use of a larger piston, increasing the damper performance and sensitivity felt by the driver, all this added together produces more grip, gives more control and driver feedback from your vehicle.

Suspension coilovers are a type of car suspension system that combines a coil spring and a shock absorber (damper) into a single, integrated unit. The name comes from “coil” (the spring) and “over” (meaning the shock is inside or over the spring). Coilovers are typically adjustable, allowing you to change ride height, stiffness, and sometimes damping settings, depending on the model.
Benefits of Coilovers:
- Adjustable ride height: Coilover suspension typically features a threaded adjustable spring platform, allowing adjustment of ride height for better handling, aesthetics, or clearance.
- Improved Handling and Stability: Coilovers usually offer better cornering performance and reduced body roll compared to stock suspension.
- Customizable Ride Comfort: Many coilovers allow you to tune stiffness and damping to balance comfort and performance.
- Better Weight Distribution: Some coilovers can be adjusted corner-by-corner to fine-tune handling balance.
- Enhanced Appearance: Lowering the car can improve the stance and overall look.
- Versatility for Different Driving Conditions: Ideal for street, track, or off-road setups depending on the coilover design.
