Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

Exclamation springs

i think it's time to lower my car

i'm leaning towards the cobb tuning lowering springs, i just have to know if the ones for the 2004-2006 wrx fit on the 2006 2.5i

any input you have on these or any other springs would be helpful

if i were to buy another spring setup, i'd go with prodrives. nice stance, good ride, not too harsh.
