As above, no set date yet but Im hoping mid next week

If anyone wants a set of GDB or GDF (Sti 05+) then youd be wise to place the order sooner rather than later as the ones coming next week will sell fast and the next batch to follow defo wont be here until late November :no:

Bren, is this quote still correct?

Im so sure of my product that Ill do an absolute no quibble 1 month money back guarentee if you dont like my coilovers. I know youll fit them and be happy so its a no risk offer for my part but it gives you a completely open door to back out if youre not impressed
If so do you have any 05 STI kits?

Yeah we will do a 1 month no quibble money back guarentee, no problem

Sadly all the STi 05+ have now dols. We can get you a set in 3-5 working days (usually more like threee than 5) but only at the full retail of £649 as air freight is a real killer, £120+vat

Alretantively we have another sea order leaving the manufacturers today I believe so you can reserve a set from that shipment if you like

Hi!

I am looking for a set for an early classic (1995 STi V2) do you have any at the group buy price? also, I am not sure which spring to use. I use the impreza mostly for track days, and I use R888s so I am assuming the 8/6kg.mm or the 6/5kg.mm would be the better choice for me, I do have to drive to and from the track though, and would like to keep my head on my shoulders.

Is it possible to buy a set of springs only later if the 8/6s were too hard? What would that cost in that case?

Shame I didnt see this buy before! hope there are some left

Yeah we have them in stock and ready to go at £549.

We run 6/5 on our Impreza with Dunlop DZ0Gs (better traction than the Toyos) and I dont have any issues with body control. I dont yet run uprated anti roll bars either so if youre going to fit a stiffer rear bar to help control understeer then thats another reason not to go so stiff on the coilovers.

Having said all that it doesnt really matter. If you go for 8/6 then you can just buy a pair of 5 springs, fit the 6 to the front and the 5s to the rear and if you go for 6/5s you can buy some 8s, fit the original rear 6s to the front and the new 5s to the rear.

Id probably go 6/5 to begin with though.

How much do a pair of 8s (or 5) springs cost? I might just get them in the first place together with the kit

Cheers!
