Default Inverted Struts

I know that MY05 onwards WRX's have inverted struts as standard as per the STI but are they exactly the same set up - ie same spring and damper rates ???

Just wondering as it is always stated that the STI has a harder ride than the WRX but my 05 WRX didnt seem any less firm than the 06 STI I drove (although I admit was only around town).

WRX and STi now have the same type of dampers but they are different rates as are the springs.
