Default Lowering springs and shocks for Blob WRX

Thinking about finally getting rid of the huge gap in my arches with decent suspension.

Has anyone tried the Peddlers kit of Scoobyworld?

http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog...oducts_id=3450

Looks a decent price considering it comes with new top mounts.

Or any other suggestions?

Don't really want to go down the coil over route as the roads round my way are ****e!

I can definitely recommend the PCA Dynamics springs on group buy at the moment, my standard shocks are fine but if yours are shot then the camskill KYB's are a match too, have a read of the thread.

Probably the best £200 I've spent in a while.

Cool. I dint think my shocks are bad. But they have done nearly 70k and I'd be worried about sticking with the standard bump stops on lowered springs. Then again if you have not had any issues.....can you point me towards the group buy?
