Lowered price to $650
I finally got around to getting my springs and shocks installed, so onto wheels now.
Lowered the price a little bit to see if anyone wants these. If not, I'll be putting these on my car next week.

John! Kumusta pare? How's your suspension hunt going? Did you go springs? Springs and shocks? Coilovers?
Haven't put a lot of miles on the new suspension yet, but first impressions so far - noticeably reduced body roll and nose dive. Definitely firmer than stock, but not as much as I thought it would be. On some crappy SF roads, you'll definitely feel the increased spring rates, but it's more of firm jolt/s rather than the bouncing up and down of the stock wrx setup.
(Koni inserts + RCE blacks + 2010 WRX struts and top hats)
Thanks for the bump!

(looking at the blitz nur spec-r). As for the suspension I got bilstien with rce yellow. I miss the adjustability of coilovers because the rear is lower than the fronts. Maybe kw v2 in the future. Good luck with the sale.

Haha I'm the exact opposite - the fronts are a tad bit lower than the rear, due to the 2010 wrx struts being slightly shorter (~0.5"?) than 2011+. Maybe you can go Bilstein shocks, I think those are supposed to have perches to adjust the height on the rears a little bit?
But you're a baller, so just go kw v2!!
Had two persons email me last night. One is all the way out at Modesto, so I doubt that lol, while the other hasn't responded to my reply yet.
