Default Difference in standard V5/6 UK Turbo + STi ride heights?

I've got an MY00 UK Turbo on standard shocks and springs. I'm looking to lower it about 25mm, nothing more.

How much lower do the corresponding V5/6 STi's sit compared to the UK's?
Could I get away with a straight swap of STi shocks and springs onto my UK? Probably be cheaper than buying 25mm springs on their own.

Cheers.

I'm going to be putting on some Pink Sti shocks & springs on my '00 Turbo either this or next weekend so will be interested to know too - I'm pretty sure it's around the 25mm mark though

Sure someone on here will give an answer before I get to fit them & let you know that way !

Hi ya,

Nah, not had chance to get into our workshop yet - inconsiderate customers booking on for repairs taking up all the ramp space

I'm working next Sat so the earliest chance to do it will be the 28th

Changed them over at weekend - the ones I replaced did drop the height by around 20mm.

Hope helps,
