Hey guys well im chasing a few ways other than just coilovers (legalities.....)
after about a 1-2 or 3" Drop or between 50 - 70 millimeters.

And who to use.?

Got a quote from Wilkinsons for $500ish Adam ? Said he could go lower if he experimented with springs but hes not sure on what to use in the 07 and wants money up front. What happens if he can only lower it 30mm i want it lower would be a waste of money then.

and Tenagah about the same.

RMS (corrected in a couple of posts my Apols to Ken at RMS) please accept and help me, as I have seen Adams car and now Im keen to spend some money. Thanks

Someone else will know better than me but i think a common option is to put 06 Sti springs in..... sure there was something mentioned in a thread a while back when Jaron was selling his struts.

A wanker for telling you should have bought a WRX if you wanted a lower car?? What's wrong with that?? Pretty harsh for someone simply expressing an opnion... Leigh's a top bloke and just tells you how it is, he doesn't sugar coat it like some others just to get your $$. Most people don't buy an XT to lower it.

As said, Give John at Wheels world a ring, he'll sort you out.

Cheers

Why not get coilovers??

completely adjustable... and are legal as long as they are set at the right height(which can be simply changed to pass pits, and then put the car on its ass again!)...

You will find it difficult to get your desired height without custom springs AFAIK... PM Fozzy, he has some well low springs in his Forester..

hahahaah hi phil, i can't get on there either, hope you still have that dash-mat for me

just get a set of 06 sti struts & springs, slot the front ones as john (bxt) and liam (montaj) did & you will be laughing

Deflate your tyres.

As said. 06 sti struts and springs. Slot em and put em in. Stop makin friends with everyone Phil.

Chop oem springs ftw?

Phil, you know you want those Teins.....
Otherwise go with the 05-07 STi struts & springs and ask Liam (nicely) to do his magic mod to the fronts.....02-04sti gear will bolt straight in but are probably getting on a bit in kms...I'm sure you remember seeing my 06 on the cruise last year....the 06 STi gear dropped it about 70mm. The ride's firm...really transformed the way the Foz handles...actually that was the only way I was able to keep up with you and Chris on that cruise...you guys drove like crazy men.

Your other option is to go for some WRX struts & get some decent aftermarket springs to go with, otherwise you'll get the dreaded bum sag.

Forget trying to put just lowered springs on the OEM XT struts as the back won't drop any more than 25-30mm due to the self levelling rear struts and dropping the front more than 60mm on the stock struts is suicide for the strut.
