Eibachs are generally considered to be the best springs available.

Powerstation - Cheltenham
TSL - Nottingham

Both have superb geometry settings. Powerstation slightly cheaper and offer the bumpsteer mod.

Do a search for Eibachs and bumpsteer.

I had a rear ARB, Eibachs, bumpsteer, droplinks and geometry done at Powerstation - the car was transformed.

Thanks Justin

I won't confuse you with my bumbling definition. Just try a search, most threads do feature an explanation.

I bought the springs from Motoscope, for £170 and fitted them myself. The geometry was done at SG Petch Subaru in Richmond, it cost about £50. All Subaru dealers can do the geometry, just ask for the Prodrive settings as opposed to standard.

HI
did ya find ride to be ok in rough ie lanes,potholes everywhere conditions
you see i have 99 uk turbo and want to fit adjustable shocks but not sure about fitting springs reason ive done it to two other cars with bad effects
want it to be stiffer but not so it rattles my fillings out
what you reckon?

jtabraham

Hi
I dont think that the springs have made any real difference to overall comfort, as they are progressive and dont really stiffen up until you really push it. Then the fun begins.....

Been looking in to Eibach's myself, they quote between 25-30mm, or though alot of threads say the ride height is hardly altered??

Any opinions?

doesn't sound too bad on ride height but it makes a difference
if you have big exhaust speed bumps and kerbs become a pain
but the handling makes up for that !!!!!
just been there done it on 3 cars and you need to relise that it affects your daily bore comute
