don't know the answer, but I've got a set going if you decide you want them.

Cheers

Pointless. All the STi owners (including me) are glad to get rid of the standard set-up!
I think prodrive do springs for the WRX now, if not Eibach.

Eibach do the springs, and they also make the Prodrive ones anyway. I have heard no end of Sti owners swapping to Eibach/Prodrive, so imho i cannot see the point in fitting Sti springs to WRX. I am getting my WRX fitted with Eibach at TSL. Amongst other things, LOL.

Thanks again for the advice. Looks like I'll be keeping the standard set-up till i get the eibach/prodrive ones then.

MaDaSS-How much is it costing for the tsl kit?

Nip on the TSL webby Jimmy, and the various options are listed depending on what you actually want doing.
http://www.tsl-motorsport.co.uk/suspension.html#chassis

Lower down that page, is the Eibach spring kit on its own if you just wanna order that.
I am having the Phase 4 setup done on my car. I needed another laser geometry as i have had a rear hub replaced, so i couldnt help myself but have the springs done at the same time.
