Pedders on currently feels terrible
So finally got my suspension sorted for 2003 wrx. If anyone needs parts that you can’t find in UK from someone like import car parts then get off eBay from USA. Saved myself hundreds compared to what Subaru uk wanted. Pedders on as well.
Ride is very good, but I need geometry doing as car feels terrible in bends. Don’t dare slide it into corners as I did with old sti suspension. I have no confidence in it. Got the white line adjustable arb still on and now have the standard plastic droplinks as the alloy ones kept breaking. See if I can live with them. I live in Hull. Is there somewhere nearby to get geometry done? Kwikfit do it nearby but they only do factory settings which is no good. Unless I can take along settings I want for fast road? |

Re your alignment, do a search on here, loads of lads have posted their settings up, just take those numbers to anyone with decent gear and say "I want these please" Its no big issue for them. hth |
i sacked pedders off after 3 months cos they sucked and knocked like an old ladies knees lol

Didn't like the way my FSTI drove on the pedders Ezifit that wa son it when I bought it so sold them on and went down the MeisterR coilover route which was a 100x better.

Just done a 300 mile trip to Newcastle and back. They are a lot better than my knocking seized up Sti set. Garage marked up previous "fast road" set up and tried to keep as close as, but they don't have laser geometry or anything so I need to get geometry done. Some lateral bars replaced too. Car seems to pull slightly to the left with hands off wheel, don't think it is just road camber. I think a geometry check will give me confidence to give it some more beans.

Which Teins Tidg?
anyone any experience with the Street Basis Z ?? |
Flex z on mine, dads got street Z on his and they are good as well. I havn't really driven it that hard in anger to do a true comparison, but i would say mine is slightly more settled in the corners.
