If you just change the springs all you'll do is ruin the handling.

Not too sure of my facts here, but isn't the P1 an Sti V5 with Eibach lowered springs?
I would think though the V5 Sti set-up is really good on the road as an all-rounder, certainly my Sti V3 was.
I am assuming everything is in good condition.

evrything is in good condition and it handles fine,but i would like it to sit lower and also keep the handling.i have searched and it is starting to look like there are no springs worth getting.sombody tell me if i'm wrong.
