** THIS IS MY BUILD JOURNAL, PLEASE GIVE ADVICE AND POINTERS!!**
Well I haven't done as much as most, but i did more then i thought i would ever do, especially for a daily driver. After researching and test driving and settling on a dealership (Subaru Gainsville initial contact 9/21/11 ) I later ordered my car and waited 8 months for delivery, which was no fun but in hindsight serves as a great conversation piece. I swore i would never upgrade anything more then the short throw... many warned me..

awesome! thinking about getting myself that set! what part of cali are you from? roads smooth ? or mixed bumpy/ smooth?

I recommend them, my bud here at work had them on his older wrx and loved them, spoke so much praise about them and he had so many high dollar coilovers etc. I'm in roseville by Sacramento, I just moved here so my knowledge of the roads are limited but so far they seem smooth, although allot of hills, I'm about 25 min from salmon falls road if you ever been on it or YouTube it. Pretty popular with the bike community.

I may just have to get those over coils! Was stuck between the epic springs and the rce blacks

The deciding factor for me was cost but I hear those are awesome too....
