    Thanks to Alex and BlueBox for the help installing the new springs! I'll write up a review on them later once they've broken in and I can give them a good go. But for now all I can say us :wiggle: :coold: :lockd: :eek:le: :werd: :bigthumb:

    Great! Glad you're happy, cant wait to go for a ride :) That' was my quickest install to date: 4 hrs and some change. The bloody irony is I somewhat enjoy doing springs :hsnono:

    Haha, I kinda like them too. When they go smoothly like these did. Yours were quite frankly hellacious becuase of all of the problems. But we'll get another shot at yours with the new tophats once they come in. Maybe we won't break a tool next time either.

    No sagging yet. I don't think it will either. The drop evened everything out nicely and it sits low. Alex and I tested the "usefulness" of the drop by seeing if we can wash the entire car without a stepstool. We can.

    Heh, thats right! I can now wash the top of my car without streching ;)

    but the WRX is easy to wash without a stepstool:keke:

    if you're like 90000 feet tall you could probably wash my whole car from one side.

    Oh yeah, there's a clunking sounds in my shocks now, especially the right front. Is that unusual? It's mostly on compression.... those of you who installed new springs with higher rates, is this common? i'm not worried yet, but it's a new sound and i want to verify that it's okay.
