Re: Coilovers ?
I don't know about a wagon but I am running Tein Type HT Gymkhana Master coilovers on my 91 SS. I've driven 2 tanks of gas on them and they're sick. I had 8k in the front and 6k in the rear I believe. They came with a spare pair of 10k springs too.

Re: Coilovers ?
I highly recommend H&R's Street Series coilovers for the GC Impreza. The valving is excellent. They use Bilstein dampers which do not have the reliability issues that Japanese coilovers do. And if you ever need them rebuilt, they are less than $90 each shipped. Do some homework on what other manufacturers cost to rebuild and you may be a little surprised.

Re: Coilovers ?
it might be my limited english knowledge, but the problem is that i can´t seem to find the info i need on that,
because of the horrific exchange rates right now the megans are really tempting because of the price and they give me all the adjustability i need.
i was looking into Teins, but again that´s a completely different price range.
