Does anyone know the typical ride height variation from front to back on a STI 5 Type R.

The car came with some TEIN adjustables although they were set with the **** hanging on the floor!!!!!!!!! Definately not my style.

I think the front should be about 5-10mm lower than the back is this correct????

Will be getting a proper geometry set up soon, however just want the car to look right!

According to Graham Goode's web site, the ride heights from the centre of hub to the underside of wheelarch is as follows.

Front 360mm
Rear 330mm

Hope this helps

Talking ride heights, does anyone know if a standard set of Eibachs will lower a 93WRX ? I've heard 20mm lowering on UK cars, inferring not as much on the WRXs...anyone know if it will reduce the height? Thing is lowering ride height gives a decent improvement in handling due to lower C of G so I was thinking I should go for lowest as possible without affecting ride on standard shocks.

cheers
Alex
