What springs for 93wrx?
 
Changing suspension to standard and was wondering what springs can be used with the standard shocks to lower it about 20-25mm.

TIA

As a WRX is lower than a UK turbo to start with you need quite aggresive drop springs to get lower still, so probably the TeinS, but to be honest in terms of geometry the car will be dropped too low for best handling.

I'm using UK shocks/springs to replace my nasty jap spec coilovers :)

OK, sorry in which case any of the decent 1" lowering springs will do you, the Prodrive or Eibach ones would be my first choice.

Mine are H&R -35mm springs, but you'll be lucky to get that sort of drop as they are usually based on the bog standard model, in our case i think it is the 2.0 Sport, but the H&R certainly made a difference to my car, I will be taking them off to fit Coilovers soon if you are interested?

Nice piccies thanks for the coilover offer but since my experience of my coilovers hasn't been good i'll give them a miss:lol1:
i've got a nice set of standard suspension to go on any way:)

cheers

Sorry mate you misread me, i am replacing my standard -35mm springs with coilovers, so will have the standard size springs with a 35 mm drop for sale, the ride height of these springs is shown in the pics :)
