Slightly stiff and will feel severe bumps more than normal. other than that they are very good.
I assume that you are comparinge them to stock WRX suspension? Stock WRX suspension was also much too soft and too boaty for me. Now I am on the STI takeoffs and ride is massively improved in terms of performance, cornering and general self-confidence, but they are a bit too harsh on bumpy roads. Don't you have any comparison of Eibach Pro Street to the stock STI suspension?

Haha, I suppose it might make a bit of a mess. Are they just glued on? Hairdryer, plastic scraper and some bug/tar remover would probably do it.
What's the rest of the spec?
Other than PPP and Prodrive 4 pot brakes, spec is pretty standard. Looking at turbo and couple of other minor mods but nothing crazy. Famous last words.....

Yeah, I've done a fair bit to suspension/brakes/handling and now I'm gathering parts for more power, aiming for 320bhp or thereabouts. Again, nothing too crazy, if that's what you call a 30% increase in power :-)
What are the Prodrive brakes you have? My PPP wagon came with standard Subaru 4 pots but I switched them with Brembos from an STI.
Wagon finally out of the body shop and looking very tasty. Just put a layer of wax down on the Jaguar 'Storm Grey' colour. Wheels are on the shopping list next. Any suggestions welcomed.

Just got round to fitting some new wheels and tyres, Rota Grids. Old PFF7s will have the winter tyres fitted and will get a refurb. These Rotas do fill out the arches nicely.

Oh I like that wagon, lovely looking car. Those wheels and tyres give it a nice aggressive stance as well, what tyres are they?
