seems like a pretty good price if you are looking to just drop your car.

if you were to do a search you would see that many members that own(ed) stechs, hated the actual performance aspect of it.

I hope your going to be drifting on the dirt if you have a STI? I had them on my 01 RS and I liked them it seems that they aren't as good as they were because mine were not soft at all and performed really well.

That's a good price for brand new s-techs. However I suggest Tanabe for nice drop+good handling. All I can say is I love my Tanabe gf210s Ride is pretty stiff though but that's why I like it. If you want to see what they llok like on a car then go to the gallery forum and look in the white thread, mine is on like the second to the last page.

Thanks 4 the advice....I did a search on other sites also, a lot people claimed the S Techs killed their struts after about 15k to 20k miles........so I may look into the others suggested.....thanks 4 the offer hyn_wrx, but I still have to get the springs =), by the way you live super close, I live in Waikele....so maybe I'll come check you out after get your springs installed and they sit, I'll PM my number.......K guys thanks again
