Damn, Check out the Body Roll

Version 5 STi Springs (Black- Non Lowering)
Version 5 STi 4-way Adj Struts
Stock Tops


Does anyone here in BAIC run STi Tarmac-Spec Springs, or springs that may be stiffer than regular STi springs? I'd like to check them out. Nope, lowering springs are not an option...

Looks like fun! Aren't the STI pinks stiffer than the black ones you have?, I'm not sure if they were lowering or not. BTW, are you still running that DIY intake on your car?

I'm thinking about maybe going ground control, that way picking up 2.5" Eibach springs in custom rates. right now i'm 220 ft/lb front and 210 ft/lb rear.

I think i need to be around 280/260, or 300/280

That why i asked about tarmac springs, cause those are like 274/250

Jeff- Pinks are lowering springs, and are softer.

Maybe i'll just save up, and see where i sit financially this summer, and maybe get coilovers.

Thanks!

I hadn't realized that that thread was still going.

Looks like i can't dampen the springs, they are too stiff for my struts. I think I'll look into a ground control setup.

Thanks again,
