I want to upgrade my suspension. Maybe just lowering springs but was looking for ideas about what I should do.

What would it take to convert a 03 WRX suspension to a 04 (or newer) STI suspension??


Please any input will help.....

Thanks

 

Pick up some swift springs and (yellow koni inserts/ u don't need this, but it would be nice), new sway bars, endlinks, front and rear strut bar.

 

what does the Koni inserts do??

 

is an 04-05 STI suspension possible on my 03???????

 

this set up will be much better than the STI. I'm pretty much sure that the 2004 STI suspension setup will work out fine. . . . As for koni inserts

ADJUSTMENT AT THE TURN OF A HAND Many of the KONI Sport dampers are externally adjustable by means of a ****, so they need not be disassembled from the car. The fine-tuning of the damping forces to personal driving style and to different driving conditions is therefore not more than a matter of seconds.

Of course, the lowering is limited to such an extent that the car will still remain suitable for normal street use. In the development of shock absorbers.
