Default Lowered Classics (springs only)

I did do a search, but most of the links for the pics weren't working.

I am just upgrading the suspension on my WRX for STI items, but will probably change the springs at the same time.

It currently looks like this..........



........but the front sits a little bit higher than the back.

I know there are some springs that lower 35mm at the front and 30mm at the rear, but not sure what make they are.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Dunno if this is any help, only had the car a week and a bit and not stopped smiling yet!! Its a v2 STi and its on fully adjustable Cusco coilovers, to be honest its probably a bit too low so it will be getting lifted up a little bit in the not too distant future

H&R springs advertised as a 50mm drop in reality the car has dropped between 25-30mm

i think the -50m drop from the H&R springs is for the base models TBH

with the turbo/wrx getting approx 15/20mm depending
i know my classic on cheap -35 gmax springs seams to sit a little lower then my two other mates who run the H&R stuff

I think they are Mak Spirits.

Might be for sale next week, but they are a bit buckled.
