Question Springs for 2006 WRX Wagon?

Hello, n00b here with a brand-new 2006 WRX Wagon. Had a bug-eyed one for almost 4 years, finally traded it in and got myself a new one (mostly because of the engine and because it's the closest thing to Alfa Romeo you can get in US :-)

Anyway, since the driver sits noticeably higher in '06 I was looking for the springs to lower my car a little. Trouble is, I can't seem to find anything specifically for 06 Wagon. My dealer says STI pink springs are not (yet) available for 2006 and most web stores don't have any 2006-specific info. I know some folks been successful with Prodrive springs, not sure if these were pink or blue ones. Does anyone have experience installing springs on '06 WRX Wagon? I don't need a huge drop, somewhere around 1" - 1.5"

Thanks in advance!

As springs go, get the wagon specific pinks. They rock!!! They sound perfect for what you are looking for. A spring is a spring. I would say more than likely they will work just fine. Check into spring rates and if the saddle and top hats are different. They should work
Oh shoots... Welcome, another one to the wagon clique. Wagons Rule!!!

Thanks for the Alfa Romeo Reference. I'm sick of people bagging on the MY06. How are the springs? How much did they lower your wagon?
