Question How should I lower my classic????

Just bought some nice 18s off BigHead (Cheers bud) for MY95 Jap Import WRX and think it still needs lowering.

I'm doing this on a budget, well not really a budget, but don't want to spend **** loads for now (just spent £860 on a full service for it!), so don't have the £500+ it takes to go the coilover route.

What would you suggest?

Also, it looks like the front is higher than the back for some reason?

Hi, Just fitted some KYB adjustables with Eibach springs. Had a set of lowering springs on before but they were too low and harsh, not sure of the make but they were red!

The car sits loverly now and handles well, still have to get an alignment done. Fitted a few whiteline bits as well.

£381 delivered from buy parts buy (speak to Nathan), for the shocks. The springs were from Demon Tweeks (170ish quid).
