I'm wanting to keep my subaru warrenty, already have PPP and body roll is something I want less of.

So for £240 inc fitting are the prodrive spings part no SACC2544 worth paying for. i.e will I notice the difference for the better.

TIA

MM

The springs are a must if you want to get the most our of the car, particularly when pushing on. I've got an MY03 and am waiting for the prodrive springs which have yet to be released...

MM,
I have had them fitted for a while now They are better than the The Eibachs I had fitted from new. Too hard and low on front

Cosmetically these are a big improvement over standard,

Handling and ride is slightly better without being too firm that you need a gumshield to stop your teeth falling out LOL

Marks out of Ten

STD.................. Looks 5....... Handling 7..... ride 8
Eibachs.............. Looks 8....... Handling 8..... ride 7
Prodrive Eibachs..... Looks 9....... Handling 9..... ride 9
Droplinks & Anti/RB.. Looks 5....... Handling 10.... ride 8

Are they worth it...........Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm YES

But for handling improvements only best value would be Rear solid Droplinks, adjustable Anti-roll bar and geometry

IMHO
Tony
