Default Hawkeye WRX standard full suspension

Hi

Due to changing to BC coilovers, I'm selling the complete suspension.

The suspension is from an 06 plate and only covered about 25k. I bought the car with 10k and after a few extra thousand i got that dreaded knocking noise. Willoughby (subaru dealer - nottingham) sorted it all out, they told me it was something to do with the rear mounts and bushings. They replaced the lot. This would of cost £300 plus labour and VAT.

Perfect condition and running perfectly.

£120ono - would recommend buyer collects due to weight. Plus i haven't got a box big enough

Cheers
Gez

I could well be interested in the shocks for £50, not really wanting to spend more as this is the age that anyone of them could start knocking again. I need to check that they are the same as mine as I dont have a WRX but I think they are. Do you know how much P+P would be?

not sure about postage, my post office will not take it - too big and heavy. Find out if they fit and then i'll try and find a courrier that will take them.

I'll only do the shocks separately if "imprezajon" takes the springs. I dont really want to start splitting them

love them mate, the car handles like a dream - you can really push the handling. ride comfort is still good and when u tweak the settings they feel like a proper race car. For what you get, i think they're pretty cheap.

They also make the car look perfect, I've got the front slightly lower than the back. The sort of results just changing springs dont even get close

I think we need pictures. A Hawkeye on coilovers looking good is something that should be posted...just to prove it of course.

£60 is more than i am looking at spending on just standard springs im afraid. i am only looking at up grading my sports springs (as i dont want to lower the car)and i am not even sure they will make much of a difference to what is on now. didnt want to spent any more than £35 but thanks for considering a split.

im in the middle of selling the rest of the suspension, if it goes through - I could do the springs for £35. just check they fit first mate.

Afraid not mate. Delivery should only be about £10. I'll get them wrapped up ready and I'll be able to get a proper postage cost
