New struts and springs on a 93 L

[killajamal]

So I have an L sedan and would like to lower it slightly using new kyb gr2 GC struts and aftermarket GD springs(there seems to be way more GD options out there.) Am I mistaken in thinking that will bolt right up? From what I can gather, the GD springs will fit fine in GC struts which will bolt directly into our cars with no fabrication.
So with that being said, what advice/input do you guys have as far as springs go? I'm not tracking the car. I use it mainly for driving on dirt roads and going snowboarding. I don't want to dump the car but would like a tasteful amount of drop without sacrificing functionality.
Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!

I can't comment on the GD spring fitment to the GC struts, but lowering the car something in the range of 1" - 1.5" is a decent range that will give you a better look, but doesn't take away too much functionality.

Thanks josh! Any comment on a good but reasonably priced spring upgrade?

I honestly don't know what is out there any more....I haven't looked at springs in over 10 years. Whiteline & Eibach were the two main ones for the Legacy. I'm not sure what's out there now for the GC chassis.

You're welcome!

You can still get eibach springs for the GC. They are pretty good and don't lower excessively, and will work right with those struts for sure. I think that using GD springs on the GC struts might result in a different than desired ride height.

One of my distributors has a few sets of springs if you need a place to get them. Only extra thing you might need are the front upper spring perches. I don't remember if they are a different diameter or not. Rears will work with your tops.

Awesome! Any idea on the prices for each? Thanks!
