mmm, looks nice. How do you like the perrin springs? Im thinking of getting those with the KYB's in the near future. I bought my car w/ s-techs on it, and quickly found out from reading the boards that these probably arnt the best springs, but i wan a spring that drops the car almost as much as the s-techs do, but is better for the struts, which the perrins seem to be, from what ive read at least

I like the Perrin springs quite a bit. I am using them with stock struts, but the ride quality is still really good. The ride height is about perfect too. I have been very impressed with Perrin's quality in their parts.

excellent, thanks for the input. after i get my brakes taken care of, suspsension is next on my list. gonna be goin w/ the perrin springs, kyb agx shocks, some rear camber bolts, and i should probably get some endlinks for the rear sway bar that the previous owner installed on this car, cuz im pretty sure it still has the stock endlinks. also might pick up some replica STi front and rear strut bars...i know they wont do too much, but what the hell


::EDIT:: by the way, how long have you had the springs on the car? Im still getting people telling me i shouldnt get perrins even with kyb's, but ive read too many posts that say good things about the perrins, i dont think ive read one post about any pre-mature srut failures. I DO realize these springs may work the struts a bit more than the eibachs or prodrives would, but it doesnt sound like they're that bad, and they're especially better than the s-techs, so whatever, im gettin em. I dont do a LOTTA driving w/ my car anyways. I only put about 30k miles on my last car...and i had it for 4 years. haha

IDAFC21, it's been a LONG time since I've been here, but in case you still care, or anyone else for that matter...I still have the Perrin springs, I still have stock struts, and I still have no problems. I am almost at 30k miles.

A.V.E, the drop is probably magnified by the fact my car was on grass. Here's a better, more recent pic.
