Quick one, had the old girl on the ramps today noticed my shocks are red, is this standard or are they the prodrive ones?
02 sti ppp bug

 

Standard Bugeye STI shocks are red

 

thanks very much, best get them changed then...... Any one ever used Koni?

 

Why change the shocks ??

With Prodrive or Eibach springs they give quite a supple ride (apparantly)

 

I will look into that.

 

Surely they look pretty cool . . .Should remind you of the old fire extinguisher!

 

mine are pink - on an 04 jdm sti

 

All the Bugeye UK shocks I have seen look more red than pink.....LOL

Handling mods are a a bit of a personal choice....Being a pissy slowcoach on scooby meets I have followed / chased quite a number of Impreza's

By far the best driven was Steve Sherwen's Bugeye WRX with standard Shocks with Eibach springs.....I have a feeling this was due to Steve's driving as he took me around a track in a Skoda

Having no shame I copied his setup

I have followed / tried to chase a couple of standard Bugeye STi's and they seem to "bounce" a lot..I apologise for the non-technical language.
