Default 2001 WRX UK300 shockies

After the above, uprated or standard items considered. Cash waiting as my standard driver side front has collapsed.

They should just be standard wrx ones mate if that makes it easier for you to find one? Well they were when I uprated mine. eBay had some selling seperate the other day too.

Must be a uk300 thing lol had to do same with mine brakes and tyres I fitted sti prodrive shocks and springs to mine as it lower stiffer handles better but still very comfy. But use mine daily so didn't think to get coilovers plus the silly middle of road speed bumps by my house would drive me potty.

Speed bumps are the 1 thing that put me off, as my estate is covered lol. What model is my Impreza? I have no idea when looking at parts? Sorry but im a Nissan man at heart, having owned 3 GTi-R's and an 800bhp R32GTR lol( pics, spec and for sale details available lol).

A 2001 wrx uk300 is the start of the newage imprezas known as bugeye and version 7 it's also know as a GDA when ordering parts, should be on you chassis number. 2001-2003 were bugeye's but most newage stuff from blobeyes Version 8 fit too. Most desired parts are from the sti's. parts from the v7/8 as most bolt straight on. bigger intercooler, bigger scoop and undertray. Shocks, brembo brakes etc.

Cheers for that mate, should make searching for parts a bit easier now. Ive saw a few sets of coilovers on Ebay, might buy a set soon, not using the car just now anyway until the brakes are changed for the new ones.

Anybody got and recomendations as far as coilovers go? Im not really wanting to break the bank either mind lol
