WTB- 2008+ STI struts and springs

I am looking for a complete set of 2008+ STI Struts/Coils with top hats.

My current suspension is junk and want to do the modification to run this setup.

Thanks!

Did some research and asked a Subaru God last night an determined the coilovers that I wanted are junk and would end up causing lots of suspension component damage in the long run.

I was able to get refunded for my preorder which is awesome!

Did some researching on the setup I'm looking to go and a lot of Forrester guys as well as a couple WRX guys did a STI strut/coil mod and are very happy with the results.

Problem is I have Tein Springs and I didn't pay attention to the rate of them. They are way to soft of a spring and are just going to destroy most struts that I put on as a replacement.

I've been looking into the STI setup with STI Pink Spings which sounds ideal for my driving style

Do some research into the koni yellows. I'm running them with eibach pro kit springs. Nice drop, but feels great. Still a firm ride that handles very well, but not harsh like cheap coilovers (I had bc brs)
