    Got these in today... now to find some time to install.

    Bilstein Spec B struts and Prova springs
    Rates are 4.35 kg/mm front and and 6.7 kg/mm rear (compared to 3.9/5.9 for STi pinks)
    They should lower the car 25 mm in the front and 20 mm in the rear

    Very nice! Where did you get them from? Are they same ones that go on the Legacy GT Spec B?

    They are not adjustable. The struts are from the JDM Spec B Legacy. The prova springs are aftermarket JDM as well. A guy on LegacyGT forums gets take-offs from Japan periodically.

    They seemed to lower the car to a perfect height imo and seem to be pretty stiff to so it hopefully got wred of some of the body roll and make it handle alot better. So how do like them Rod?

    The ride home was fun. So much improved over stock. They remind me of my WRX on prodrives. I think the drop is perfect for our car.
