I have a 98 WRX which I think has std WRX shocks and Eihbach Springs. I feel virtually every single pot hole and need something which will be make the ride far smoother.

Any recommendations i.e. which dampers should I get and the cost to change all 4 corners.

Cheers

J

Just get used to the hardness, you know the car corners well & is probably glued to the road. I'd keep them, I have and its a big difference.

Hiya mate,

Im having the same kinda problems as you... shocks are way to hard for our roads. Thought this might be of some help to you. If you do end up changing your shocks and springs... im making a 'HOW-TO' with pics which might help ya.

I know it's a different car, but I'm having stardard Wrx suspension put on my MY02 Sti in a few weeks. I know some people would frown apon this, but my Wife is pregnent and it just to uncomfortable for her at the moment. Besides I never take my car on the track or drive fast down b roads, so I doubt i'd have any problems with the handling.
