So I finally got my refund from the GOV and I want to buy springs for my V7 STi struts ... what will fit? I kinda wanna get 04 specific Tanabe GF-210's, any other suggestions? Other than Prodrives that are near impossible to get unless someone has a used pair they are getting rid.
If you like Prodrive go for SPT. They're about the same spring rate and way cheaper. I just got SPT for my 02 wrx and love'em. Drop 1.4F & 1.2 R for mine. Dont know if they'll fit but its a good price+ club discount.
I just put on a set of Crucial Racing springs. They have a very similar drop to Prodrives. They are progressive with a fairly high spring rate, so they ride very nicely daily, but handle the turns very well.
Where did you get those Nate? What are the rates and drop? What are the rates and drop? Hi Carl :wavey:
Used on NASIOC. However, I believe there is a group buy going on for new springs right now. Search for threads started by "Crucial Racing."
chet, i thought you liked your ride height? I've installed both crucial and the tanabe gf210. Both are very nice looking, but i think the crucial springs felt a bit softer (stock like) during normal driving. either way lemme know when you're ready, we can replace that crazy rear strut bolt at the same time.
1.4" front 1.3" rear. I don't know about the rates, but I THINK Dream had these on his old STI, so he may have some input
here's a bunch of spring rates....you may have to log-in to view http://www.scoobymods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32
Looks great in the winter and ridiculous with the summer wheels, I'm buying Mike's RCE's that drop is just to sick to pass up for that price!
whoa, those are some stiff springs. get some stiff sways and you'll have a very nice suspension set-up.
Where are the Prodrives? http://www.rallysportdirect.com/sho...Csid=85f58e9f0c2048f312ea78f1fc714ab6&x=0&y=0 :biggrin: That's as good as you're going to get new. Used pops up here and there. It just depends on if you want the WRX ones, the older STI or the 05+ STI ones.:laugh: WRX ones are blue and are 175 lb/in front and rear as far as I'm aware. The older STI dropped a little more than the newer STI ones, both somewhere around 200 lb/in. Northursalia has 215 F/ 195R listed for the Prodrive P1 which may be what the STIs are at, don't know. Dig around, I've seen more than half a dozen up for sale in one form or another in the last week or so. I've got a used set of 05+ STI ones heading my way as we speak, going on the Forester with some KYB AGX sedan struts.:yumyum: Shop around. You'll find some if that's what you're interested in...or buy new.
