Are MY04 WRX prodrive springs the same as STI8 prodrive springs??

Might be better to consider the '05 monotube dampers with the new 05 springs. Don't know how feasable/possible it is, but may be a better solution. If it is possible, I may consider it myself if/when I do the Prodrive springs.

The springs are not the same, the STI Prodrive Kit came out in April 2003 & the WRX Prodrive spring kit came out on the 10th of December that year 2003, those of us with WRX's had to wait a long time LOL

Not being funny but this is EXACTLY why we shouldn't be using the silly name, STi8. Which do you mean, 02MY STi (which is the 8th version of STi produced) or an 03MY STi?

Sorry, I wasn't being pedantic, the difference between 02 & 03MY STi is important as the rear topmounts changed and hence the springs are different. Also our 02MY springs don't have the bumpstops included in the kit like the 03MY.
If you are going to change the dampers, my suggestion would be STi dampers with a WRX spring kit and the bumpstops from our 03STi kit. If your dealer is struggling with the part numbers, let me know.
