im from just outside cardiff, why not go for lowered springs from prodrive or eibach and fit some whiteline goodies and get the geometry set up, that what i ended up doing transformed the car

Have a set of later 05 WRX (inverted STI style) shocks and springs that should go straight on, came off my car after ~8k iirc..

Supposed to be a much better setup, especially if you put them on with a set of eibach springs..!

Their taking room in the garage at the moment, so any half decent offer and they're yours..

Location/distance may be a problem however..!

PM me if you're interested..
