Smile H&R lowering springs
Hello folks,

Any idea if 2002 Impreza H&R lowering springs will fit my 2003 WRX Wagon?

Thank you

Mike

Bugeye springs are different to blobeye springs, so I don't think they will..

Steve gave me a set of STi spring from his bug for my wife's blob wagon, but the tops vary (from memory) so they didn't fit.

They were passed on for someone else to make use of.

Thanks guys.

Ginola! Pro Drive springs?? Woah! What is the drop like and what sort of price would I be looking at? I have been looking at Apex springs, write ups seem quite good. Thought it was worth a shot until i get coil overs one day

They should be prodrive blues on the blob wrx.
They drop down to lower then the standard sti ride height.

I have a set here as took them off a friends blob when he swapped to sti struts that also had prodrive lowering reds fitted.
Ride height was visually very similar but ride is firmer on the sti combination.

Ah that's a shame. Oh well, at least someone is making use of them!
