Rear shocks 02 wrx
 
One of my rear shocks has started leaking on my02 wrx

Might as well replace the pair while I'm there anyone recommend a replacement set?

I have a set of STi standard front and rear shocks off my bug if any good :ok:

Replaced all round with my Eibach Coilovers..

Anyone tried and tested the following? Not sure if this is a great price or not?

KYB are basically OE but I'm sure I've seen them cheaper and that was for the updated ones.

ebay then? these seem to come up a pretty good price, I think that the right one is £90 so £160ish in total?

£140 a pair sound about right?

£70/corner sounds more like it price-wise for the Excel-G shocks. The uprated ones are called Ultra-SR if you wanted to go for them.

Its worth downloading the KYB catalogue and checking the part numbers on ebay match with the model of your scoob, there's a few different versions depending on whether wrx/sti/saloon/wagon etc and I wouldn't always trust an ebay seller to be correct ;)

Thanks guys - as usual great advice

I will have a look at the Ultra-SR - not afraid to pay a little extra if it will make a noticeable difference :)

For anyone else looking at these in the future the ones I posted before are the wrong pair!

Should be these: 334358 334359
