I have a 98 Impreza Sport and the suspension seems very soft. There is a lot of lean going around corners and during hard braking. Would it be worth fitting the Turbo springs which I believe are firmer? Other threads seem to suggest that new dampers are the only way to improve handling - which is obviously the real point of the exercise. Any rough estimates on cost for new springs and / or dampers?

Thanks...

I would say it will improve it no end. You may be better finding someone that has Leda or Prodrive suspension fitted to a 99MY car, and buying their old setup, much cheaper than original, and will probably have very little miles or use on it.

Jamie.

If you look in the Private for sale items forum you will find several people selling suspension kit off of STi's Etc.

Jamie,

I seem to recall a message by JohnS recently saying that that AF Noble & Son Subaru dealers had some MY98/99 spring/dampers sets for sale ('cos of folks going for Prodrive upgrades). I think they are asking for something in the region of £100 for a full set (could be wrong).

Best call Colin Noble on 01968 672003 for more info.
