Highest band I'm afraid, so £269 for 6 months if memory serves. I try not to dwell on it lol.

You play, you pay as they say!

It has 4 and a half months tax on it!

Down sarf! near London.

The BCs are the comfort spec springs e.g. 5kg/mm front and 4KG/mm rear.

I honestly would not go any stiffer for the road.

Someone has first refusal on the car at the moment, but will keep you all updated on how that progresses.

Yes, let me know, thanks.

How would you say the springs compare to the standard car ? From what I remember of a test drive in an 06 STI they were pretty firm but not as bad as an EVO 8.

BTW I am in Scotland but have bought 2 cars from England before.

I had the upgraded PPP springs on the car initially, and to be honest I thought the car's suspension left a lot to be desired. Body control was decent, but ride quality was worse than some coilover kits I'd experienced and the front end was really "bobby"! The BCs are certainly a significant improvement in handling and also an marked improvement in ride quality. They have adjustable damping, so there is scope to tune the ride/handling somewhat. An Impreza will never be a limo though!
