hi im new here and have a question to ask.

i recently bought a new 2005 2.5 rs

is it alright to drive for a month, and then lower it?

if it is ok? what kind of shocks/springs should i get?

and should i worry about the warranty and stuff?

If you don't want to mess with warranty issues, don't do anything. They say "you pay to play", and it is true dealing with Subaru's. Although almost everyone does it because it is just so much more fun to drive a car that handles well or better than stock. You will need to make a decision based on your means. Personally, I would do it. You can't enjoy your money when your dead.

Eibach is cool, but I prefer Prodrive if it's available for your car for springs. KYB's are good for struts/shocks if you don't want to spend too much. Good luck and have fun. I wouldn't go too far from those for a lower priced set-up.
