personally I liked the look on the GCs better, but the pinks look great. Any reason for switching?

He told me he wanted a softer ride. Something not quite as jarring as the GC setup.

Shoot me a pm if you're interested, I know of a couple places that have 'em but they aren't i-club vendors, so no free advertising.

Thanks

Yeah they exist. They're not as stiff or as low as the JDM STI Pink springs, however they're specific for the wagon so you won't get any saggy butt common with springs made for the sedan

USDM's say they drop also 1 inch.

What does differ are the spring rates...Anyhow..I'm happy with mine...gotta lotta road craters over here.
