    Well the title says most of what you need to know. It is a sedan and I want new struts all around. If you don't have any links of where I can get some would be great too.

    Thanks,
    Bill

    Check CVRMotorsports.com, they've had the lowest price that I've seen online other than Ebay, 425.00 shipped. The WRX ones seem to be a bit more expensive.

    I am starting to look for the same thing Blu!

    What springs you going with? I had been planning on getting them from tirerack but wouldnt mind getting them cheaper. I was planning on getting the Eibach springs since they sold them (one stop shopping) but wouldnt mind prodrive as well!

    BTW, what other things do we need? alignment stuff, new mounts?

    price at tirerack
    Eibach Pro-Kit Spring Set Price: $220.00 (kit)
    KYB AGX Adjustable $123.00 Special each

    Tirerack is still more money than CVR or Ebay...The difference between most of the Ebay ones that I've seen and CVR is usually around 20-25 bucks, so you can't really miss either way. 400-425 shipped is an awesome deal. You could also think about upgrading your strut tops to Group N tops to give them a more solid mounting point. Also, an alignment kit may not be necessary if you're going to run stock or slightly more aggressive than stock settings, as there is a fair amount of adjustability with the stock setup. Not enough for a serious autocrosser, but more than enough for normal to spirited street driving.

    I currently have prodrive springs on my car. My plans are to get the struts, put them on, then go see the mate down in shokoppe for an alignment. I do sprited driving but have not gotten into the auto cross or rally scene YET!! So I just have him adjust them to spec for longest life on my tires...

    Maybe if we find a store on ebay the would give us a deal on shipping if we order together..
