Hi

Well I've finally given my bank manager a headache and purchased my 1st scooby, A 2003 STI with 19" wheels.

The questions I have (and I'm sure it's been asked before..sorry) is what effect will having the prodrive springs fitted have? Is it worth the upgrade or should I continue to save for the PPP?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Cheers

Hi PC555
Welcome to Scoobynet
Do a search under "Prodrive springs" and you will get loads of comments on them.


Here is one to get you started.

You wont be disappointed with the PPP.
As for the springs, I havent got them on mine, but I'm happy with the handling. Best to listen to the guys who have them fitted. But I have seen a few posts where customers have been extremely unhappy. The springs are claimed to reduce the bounce (what bounce, mine doesnt do it!) but surely thats shockers not springs?
I was going to change mine but am still waiting .......
STEVE.........
Oh by the way welcome to Scooby ownership, do you like your new motor?
