    I need some money. I need some space in my living room. I have 4 stock 02 WRX/2.5RS struts with eiback pro kit springs on them. Theyre worth about $250 for the package.

    If someone can pay me by weds/ thurs theyre all yours for $120. The springs alone are worth that. everything is in good conditions works fine.

    look at my sig. That's what the drop is, while moving. its seems about the same when not moving.

    It's rated at 1.3in front, 1 rear.

    they're progressive rate springs too. Excellent ride quality, and good enough for light track use. they are one of the only brands of spring that is also manufactured to mate w/ the oem struts.

    this deal is silly. I'm selling this stuff for half what it's worth. just get it out of my house!!!

    Actually the ProKit springs are a 1.3" drop in the rear and a 1" drop in the front, at least it was on those springs for the GCs and I'm pretty sure they're the same springs for all Impreza models. Our cars need slightly more drop in the rear as opposed to the usual greater drop in the front. Remember that the boxer engine reduces the need for greater drop in the front. If you're looking for performance (which I guess isn't the aim if you're dropping it more than 2" ) than don't drop the front lower than the rear.

    i have heard that GDB chassis stuff will fit GC chassis. if this is true, my dad might call dibs. his wagons has some bad suspension on it. (200k miles will do that to stock struts)

    depends on what performance you are talking about... Rally definitely NOT... looks DEFINITELY... so if lower and no dampening is a problem then how do indy cars and formula 1's handle so dang well besides downforce??

    anyways... I want my tires to be at the bottom of the guards.. sorry if my taste is PIMP but if I want to spend money I will spend it for my taste not to please everyone else... besides I have never autocrossed and probably never will... I just want my ride to be the way I want it... and when I say ride I obviously DONT mean comfort..ha ha ha

    They ride on baby-smooth tarmac. If I was driving on baby-smooth tarmac with my car I could afford to drop it a little further as well. And with how much bumpsteer you're going to get from a 3" front drop I'd be careful cornering on any uneven pavement, which is like most of the midwest (except Grand Forks' sweet concrete roads). When I was speaking of performance I meant just that, I've never associated performance with looks.

    you're going to be questionable on the abilty to correctly align the front end on a gc8. I believe the stuff fits, but I know for a fact the rear strut design is quite different. I personally wouldn't do it...

    hmmmm... hten if that is the case why do they run the Gold Coast Indy Car race (surfers PAradise) Where I just moved from 3 yrs gao on STREET roads thorugh teh center of the tourist district.. let me tell you they arent BABY smooth roads... scary driving through at 50mph yet alone over 200... and I am sure there are numerous roads Monaco etc that are that.. street roads... I agree most of the tracks are race tracks... but not all... comfort isnt too much of a problem... with the tires I have now it is still smoother than the factory Sti I drove...
