Just to clarify something that has been ongoing re: The "Blue" springs..........

Located this box yesterday. Blue Pro R springs will/can fit the early widebody Hatch


not according to the dealer.

I asked Subaru Derby (Beechwood) to get me the BLUE ProR springs on mine and after them ringing IM/ProR they were told they only fit the SpecC suspension set up which is MY11-on.

The option for the MY08- cars is the Prodrive springs by Eibach's which is whatthey got and fitted for me.

I see on the ProR site Don links to that the blue springs now say for MY11-

When I was looking last year it said MY08-, hence me wanting them. They must have updated the site now. Also its not saying what drop they are either.

The Pro Kit at the bottom of the page I don't think is the PRODRIVE kit I've got either, so not sure where you get that from unless dealers have access to the Prodrive range still.

I can''t see either where I saw the info on the prodrive ones, as I knew they were a 10mm drop all round.

The Eibach Pro Kits I saw on ebay etc were more like 25/30mm drop.


That would have been more than I wanted for mine.

Very shortly I am going to be fitting a set of 19" Prodrive GT2 wheels but I am a little concerned about lowering the car too much, does anyone have these wheels fitted and encountered any problems upon lowering the car?

I am not becoming a stance c**t for all the tea in China, lower it yes but the ability to drive the car wihtout scraping the underside would be a nice bonus as well.

Looks like I will need to try and source a set of Prodrive lowering springs then, shouldn't be too hard but rocking horse poo might be easier to find.

It's only the one side, and it's coming off.

Do me a favour Steve if you can you PS my front bumper to show the fog lamp blanks in body colour rather than the plain black they are now?
