Default sti suspension

hi all,
is there much of a difference in ride height and handling between the standard wrx and sti suspension? And is it worth up-rating?

cheers

If you're thinking of uprating the WRX's springs/dampers, then I'd go for something 'better' than the STi setup. There's so much choice out there for all budgets...

That said, my std. v.5 STi's is great on our roads - a great compromise between compliance/comfort and handling prowess.

Depends on the model year I think, from 05 they started putting the inverted dampers from the STi on the WRX for example. As joz says though, better to go for the kit STi owners upgrade to!
