Default Pic Request: STI Type R........

....on standard suspension (ie not lowered at all), preferably with 18" wheels

Am goin to fit my set of STI 6 suspension to my car very soon, but need to see if it'll need lowering springs aswell

I'd get the H&R's 50mm drop... although they don't drop it that amount... It gives them a good stance and still drives nice...

Get them on... and if your not happy with the H&R's you can always sell them to me... lol

Was thinking of using the lowering springs that are on it now, but not sure what make they are, and would like it sitting slightly higher at the back than it does now....looks like it's dragging it's **** like a dog with worms!!!

Moley if they are the Pink Sti Version 6 Springs they are already lowered. I put Tein S Tech springs on mine and it ended up higher than it was to start with.

They might be off a version 5, as the springs are black
