I need a set of used struts.

I don't want to sell my '93 L wagon hoopdie with the STi V5(?) struts on it.
Anyone got a set of used struts they got laying around?
I need for Saturday
We can trade sets, or I can give you $$$, or Matt can provide you with a Rusty Trombone.

hey good buddy...will v5 struts work on my WRX? If they will, and if you'd be interested, I'd be willing to work something out involving a trade of my stock struts for your v5s....

Paul, I'll track down some struts for the L, then matt and I will fight to the death for them. I'll take the 4pots, too, if Matt backs out. I'll try to get some struts and the RS brakes this weekend.

The V5's are still in ok shape, right?

OK...thought the struts were sold, but they're not.
The struts are in good/used shape; don't leak, but the previous/original owner hack sawed the bracket to remove the brakeline. It's still there & the clip will still retain the line, it just looks a tad off.
I've had these struts on my Legacy & the L; all I had to change were the springs & tophats.
As I have 03/04 WRX struts on the Legacy now, I'd say that the V5s should fit on your WRX.
Let me know when/where I can trade/buy from youse guys.

The tab cutting thing is no big deal. All 4 of my struts have the same thing. And yeah, V5 struts would kick *** with your springs Matt. And Aaron.

I'll try and get struts saturday, and get them to the shop along with the other set of brakes, if you still want to part with them.

I think Aaron is taking all of them and then we're going to have a death match for the parts.

Sure. I'll have the stuff there tonight, so whenever you want to come by is cool. I don't get off work till 5 normally, so I don't always make it to the shop before they close.
