Exclamation Thinking of lowering my legacy... need some input from u

i was considering on lowering my 1998 legacy gt i just want a spring set becaus i dont have the money for a full suspension system and im not trying to get too much improved handling i just want my car a little bit lower

In that year, I believe they are. Maybe some minor modifications are needed, or maybe the GC/GM suspension is a better fit.

I know its much easier then 00+ when the legacy when to a multi-link rear.

Eibach ProKit is a very nice suspension for the car, and it's cheap. Look on Ebay and stuff. Should be like $200. KYB GR2 sturts are designed to be paired with those springs, too. The combo is incredibly impressive for the price.

GC8 stuff will work, but you might find the rear ending up a touch lower than ideal.

I've had my car on Eibach's for like 5 years:

PM me if you have specific questions or whatever....

...and yes, the WRX suspension will bolt right up. You might need WRX top hats but other than that it's plug and play...
