I put them on my OBS with GR-2's and it is a happy marriage. No slamming over sharp bumps... no 'ricer' bouncing heads down the road AND great handling!

The drop is near perfect ~ see below.

Plus this is a great price installed!
prodrives do not cause saggy butt on the wagon. trust me. ive had them on my wagon, and the fender are exactly even.

4F902: 04 STI
Drop - F:-25mm, R:-20mm
Rate - F:4.5kg/mm, R:4.0kg/mm

4F902: 05+STi
Drop - F:-30mm, R:-30mm
Rate - F:4.5kg/mm, R:4.0kg/mm

Why are the heights different between an 04 and 05 STi? They seem to be listed as the same part number.

the strut is slighty different due to the hub. but it uses the same springs.

thanks

You should be able to apply these springs in any coil over application. Correct me if I'm wrong here... This is what I'm looking to do myself on a set of Zeals.
