Default G-Max....

Evening guys/gals,

Im just about to buy some -35mm lowering springs from G Max.

They are advertised to fit the Impreza Turbo and give a -35mm drop. My question is....

Im buying them to go onto my Sport Special which naturally sits a good few mm higher than a turbo. I assume even though they are for a turbo they will still fit my Sport? Also, as my sport sits higher than a turbo as standard, the advertised -35mm drop will actually be a few mm lower once fitted?

Thanks in advance,

Stu

I think the spring rating will be different. Also not sure if your struts will be different to turbo ones.

struts should be the same, as said spring rates may be different though but saying that you can still use them..

Hi Stu

We used to sell G-Max springs and they do list the different part numbers for Non Turbo and Turbo models.
The part number for non turbo is 30 SB 01 and the turbo model ones are 30 SB 02 or 30 SB 03.
The two different turbo part numbers are the same apart from the 03s having a slightly thinner rear spring for the later model cars, although they will both still fit.
I would be inclined to go for the Turbo model springs as the non turbo ones are mainly listed for the 1.6 and 1.8.

HTH

Thanks

Keith
