    As many of you have seen, I am looking to get into/onto some coilovers this year (probably BC's)

    http://mnsubaru.com/forums/showthread.php/41034-WTT-My-STI-Suspension-for-your-Coilovers

    I figure the car will be mostly sitting for at least the next couple weeks anyways, so this is probably a good opportunity to see if there is any local interest in my setup. This setup was comfortable enough for the daily commute, and helped me place 2nd, 3rd, and 2nd in my first 3 Auto-x events. (and I suck, lol)

    Here is what I have:

    1. '04 STI strut housings with lower-mileage '06 STI cartridges. 50K-ish, I can help re-pack grease after removal. Fits just about every typical 5x100 Subaru I can think except '05+ STI. $300

    2. Prodrive "Red" springs. Made '05-'07 STI, perfect for the valving on these struts. Fits '04-'07 Impreza. ('02-'03 also if you get the '04-'07 rear tophats) $250

    3. Front and rear Subaru Group-N tophats. I wouldn't mind shipping these if nobody local wants them. They can be a bit harsh for some folks, great responsiveness/feedback though. $250

    Total comes to $800. I can wiggle on price a bit if you want at least the struts and springs, and even a bit more if you want everything.

    *Keep in mind that this is still a gauging interest thread and that I may not be willing to sell just one component without the rest being spoken for.

    About 30k since I got them(drove 30min to work for 2 years). IIRC, they were all lightly used when I bought them.

    hmm, I'm slightly interested in the struts. I'm on cobb springs on stock wrx struts (they hate me), but I'm still trying to decide what struts to go with. Might end up going with a different spring tho, since I hear the cobb's spring rate is a bit soft. Where did you do your research?

    My whole setup is actually pending sale on Thursday.

    I looked mostly on Nasioc for info. There is a lot of stuff to sift through on there, but good info is in there.
