MY05 STi Shocks FOC
After upgrading to Bilstein's,I now got some old STi shocks knocking around someone can have FOC.They done about 45,000 miles,The front's need a wire brush to remove some surface rust but are good but the back's need a brush and a rebuild.If someone is willing to collect from Gloucestershire then they can have them free of charge as I need the space
If not then the scrap man can have them.

How does the car feel with the B14?
Planted and not bouncy on bumpy roads?

Not what I was hoping to hear
Have you tried adjusting them or are they not adjustable?

Only ride height adjustable.I've raised the ride height so it better than it was when fitted but still bouncy.I knew what to expect because I've had coilovers before on a previous car.
