04 STi Wagon Pink springs on 04 STi Struts in 02 wagon

So.

Would the Wagon specific STi Pink springs work on a set of 04 STi Struts in a 02 WRX Wagon?

Great, I was hoping that it wouldn't matter much.

Also, what would the benefit if any at all of replacing my strut mounts with group N ones?

Must've been from an '04 STi, because the '05 STi ones won't fit.

But to answer the OP question, they should work. But you should really buy my RCE wagon specific springs instead....hahaha

yeah, '04 STi struts will fit on an '05 WRX, but '05 STi struts will only fit on '05+ STi's. I think....

Yes. 05 STI struts and coilovers are model specific.

Here's the deal.

The year basically tells you everything you need to know. Moreso you are worried about the LUG BOLT PATTERN from the car the struts were meant for.

So for all struts made for the '02 and up WRX OR the '04 STi you have 5 x 100 lugs. The '05 and up STi lugs are 5x114.

The difference between the two cars' setups is the holes at the bottom of the strut that go onto the knuckles (where the brake discs are mounted). The 5x114 bolt holes are different pattern from the 5x100.

Word...I love you all...let's hump?

Just in mid-70's today...had a couple mid-60's days. This next few days are 80's.

It'll get cold and my ********* will begin to hide soon though...probably in the next 2-3 weeks.

Blake, I remember as a kid growing up eating snow. You know my obsession with slurpees right? Just add O.J. or syrup to a packing of fresh snow and you have a nice cold snack when it's nice and COLD outside...haha
With the ozone and that crap, i wonder how safe it is to eat the snow?

It's not safe at all to eat snow sir...probably worse when we were kids because there were more pollutants in the air in most cities that had factories. Now, they at least have some environmental controls but back then your snow cones probably had all kinds of weird chemicals and particulates in them.

This probably explains a lot
