Question Sti better than uk?

Does anyone know if sti ver1&2 my96 suspension is better than the standard kit fitted to my96 uk car?and if the ride height is any lower on the sti set up?
Would it be worth changing to the sti set up?Any help greatly received?

IMHO:
The Sti suspension is better than the same year UK.
BUT

You have to deceide if you want the Sti ride or the 'softer' UK.

The Impreza is a sports saloon in my opinion so should have a tight suspension.

As to whether it is lower, not sure, but I doubt it.

Yes, the later Sti's are the better units. My V3 was really nice, and i hill climbed on it for a year before all the changes.
