Why do you ask the question if you already know what you are gonna do ????

So put your eibach springs on your standard dampers and go for a crap ride :-(

I think you should go for specific dampers fitting the eibach springs 'cause the original dampers won't give a good result with the eibach springs.

If you just wanna have the look, go for springs only

If you wanna stick to the road and fly from one corner to the other, go for specifics dampers and springs.

I do have eibach springs on koni dampers and that's amazing how good the handling is, as i just said before, you are flying through all corners :-))))

Can't still beleive how fast i can now take corners :-)))))

Yagiz,

See Eibach thread in "Suspension" section of the BBS. My experience (MY99 Sport 5 door) is that the springs fitted to my standard dampers (different dampers to the turbo?)have improved the handling without any adverse affects. Ride height has been reduced by 30mm.

I was advised by an Impreza servicing company specialing in rally car prep to change the Eibach springs back to the standard springs on my STi. I was going to change it back but have not been able to find another STi with standard springs to see how different they are. Must get to a meet...
The ride is hard but I have not pushed it enough nor am I experienced enough to comment on whether the handling has been affected at all.
