Default Prodrive Springs for 2005 widetrack STI

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if the following prodrive springs would fit oem shocks from a 2005 widetrack STI please?

Part Numbers =
Front LE07/D5/001
Rear LE07/D5/002

The seller's description states that they are for STI models made between 2005 and 2007.

The springs also have 12/07 printed on them, which I'm guessing is the manufacturing date. From searching for the part numbers, I think they came fitted to the RB320. As this is a hawk eye model, would they also fit mine?

Thanks in advance,
Dibs

They are off an rb320

This says they fit 2005 - 2007 STI's

I think you'd need the matching, wide track ,Prodrive 2-position (road/track) adjustable rear bar.

I know where there are 9 of those bars, going cheap.

Wow! You sir, are a true legend!
So the springs would fit, but I would need the adjustable rear bar?

Can you let me know where to get the adjustable bar from please.

Thanks

you dont 'need' an adjustable rear bar - thats only if you want to replicate the full rb320 setup

20mm std.

RB320 gets a 21mm rear - but id be pretty certain that's to compensate for the softer RB320 springs developed for UK roads

I've got access to new, Eibach, 8 x 21mm, 2-way adjustable rear bars at £140 delivered.
I believe they also fit 2005-2008 Forrester's.
Perhaps a group buy?

I've been offered 8, as a job lot.
Well, 7 if you want one?
Perhaps a group buy?

Some set-up info:

Thanks for all the great info. So you're saying that the springs would fit without the sway bar? I'm still interested in the group buy if it helps out.

Also what kind of drop in mm would these springs give for the 2005 widetrack STI?

Regards,
Dibbles
