Porsche 986 Boxster Performance Parts & Upgrades
Performance parts for the original 986 Porsche Boxster and Boxster S built from 1996 to 2004. The car that saved Porsche is now an affordable, rewarding mid-engined sports car, and the right upgrades make it feel sharper and more modern without losing its character.
986 Suspension, Coilovers & Geometry
After more than twenty years, almost every 986 is running on worn dampers and perished bushes. Replacing them with quality suspension and finishing with a proper geometry setup restores the precise, balanced handling the Boxster was famous for. Choose from coilovers and dampers from Öhlins, KW and AST, Eibach lowering springs and our own String Theory Garage alignment components.
986 Intake & Air Filters
We stock K&N high-flow air filters.
986 Brakes
Endless brake pads matched to how you drive, from spirited road use to repeated hard stops on track, plus Endless braided brake hoses for a firmer, more consistent pedal.
986 Engine & Ignition
Supporting upgrades including MOTUL engine oil to keep your flat-six healthy under hard use.
986 Seats, Wheels & Tyres
Cobra bucket seats, Lifeline safety equipment, PWRD hubcentric wheel spacers and Nankang performance tyres to complete your build.
Fitting & Geometry Setup for Your 986
We fit everything we sell at our workshop in Stratford-upon-Avon, and finish suspension work with ride-height setting, corner weighting and a bespoke geometry setup for your 986. It is the difference between fitting new parts and having a car that genuinely drives better.
Porsche 986 Boxster Upgrade FAQs
Will 987 parts fit my 986 Boxster?
Some suspension and brake parts are shared between the 986 and 987, but not all. Fitment is listed on every product, and if you are unsure, send us your registration and we will confirm.
Is it worth upgrading an older 986?
Absolutely. Fresh suspension, good brake pads and a geometry setup are affordable and transform how a 986 drives. Get in touch and we can recommend a sensible plan.
