Default STI suspension on my uk 2000

Got my car a new set (well 2nd hand) set of springs and red shocks of a newer shape sti as 1, it was to high and 2, the old one's were leaking and i think it looks alright?

Drives alot better and does not feel like such a boat around corners!

Now just needs abit of paint, jun front splitter and engine work (already have clear indicators going on later today...

Not lowerd

I've the same set up on mine and find them alot better than the standard uk suspension. Slightly stiffer with great cornering.

I know what you mean about the ride, I switched from standard setup to a set of Cusco coilovers (Never Again), drove the 50 miles home and I had to take them off. Just far to hard.

The STI set up is great upgrade, works really well with uprated ARB's and drop links
