Dear Mike
As you suggest me I am going to buy the Prodrive Bilstein/Eibach suspension kit. The question is what kit? The local Subaru dealer knows only one kit. But i think is there two available from Prodrive (if wrong, correct me): the first one is the normal (named GT i think), and the other one (WR Sport or professional) is a little bit harder. I am interesting for the harder one (my car is 2000cc turbo, 218hp, AWD, my2000, with 17’’ OZ Superturismo Evo gold and Michelin Pilot Sport 215/40/17).
-Do you know - or anybody else - the part number of the harder kit (are the springs blue and the shocks gray)?
-It works with the Prodrive settings (-1 camber front, 1mm toe-in front-rear) and the anti lift kit (or needs different settings with the ALK)?
-Is true or rumors the new Bilstein coil over kit?
Sorry for the questions, but nobody here can’t help me…
PS: If there is no harder kit than the first one, does anybody know the part number of the P1 suspension?

Jim,
You'll need Mike to answer the rest of those questions. But yes, there is a new kit from Bilstein that will be available soon.
My understanding is that it will be a coilover kit with seperate bump and rebound settings, will be height adjustable etc.
When they get around to releasing it ? No idea, last I heard it was awaiting TuV approval.
Cheers
Ian

Jim, there are two Prodrive suspension kits for your car.
The 'Performance' kit is Subaru part No SACC2122F-4DR (if you have a 5-door car, then 5DR suffix - springs are slightly longer for the rear). Springs are blue.
The newer 'Professional' kit gives a slightly harder ride but Prodrive claim superior performance. Springs are grey. Subaru part No SACC2139, Prodrive part No PD-SK-IMP99A/B/C.
Ther is also an adjustable suspension kit from Prodrive, but this is for the new shape MY01 car.
