Default Broken Prodrive front spring query.

Hi Guys,

My 2003 WRX PPP blob wagon went in for it's MOT today and failed on a broken front spring. I know these blue Prodrive springs are like hens teeth and looking for a replacement I can feel a headache coming on!

I dont have the car handy but does the blob wagon have conical rear springs or parallel? and would aftermarket lowered front springs on the blob be the same as the bug?

The tester said the rears look fine but I intend to replace them all in one hit.

Any help/guidance much appreciated.

As far as i'm aware front springs are the same for newage cars in 5x100 fitment, the difference is on the rears due to different top hat design.

Sorry can't help with your other question.
