Does anyone have pics of 2.5 Rs springs on a BC Legacy?

They are supposed to bolt on with new front upper spring perches & lower the car about 1" (according to the super-suspension chart).
I have 2 sets of these, & was planning on putting 1 set on my L-turbo, just wanted to see if it was worth the trouble.

You apparently haven't looked at the other threads in here. This one is brand new and will answer your question:

scottzg had rs springs on his car. The interesting thing was that he was using four front springs with 93-94 rear tops.

Thanks for the link, but I know how to change strut/springs.

I was looking for a pic of a 92+ LSS on 2.5 Rs springs.

I had them on my car until recently. It looks like it dropped the car about an inch all around

I put OBS springs on for rally-x

My '91 is on RS springs. Here's a few old pics.

thanks for the pic!

not the best shot, but heres a pic of my 92 with 2000 rs struts/springs

The pic of the '92 has me planning a J/Y trip for the upper spring perches!

i'll save you a trip, i have a pair of perches in my garage that i'll sell you for $20 shipped for the pair. they were from when i was running wrx stuff on my 99 leggy wagon. let me know if you want them..

Are they the same as GC Impreza perches?
I thought WRX's had the tapered springs for some reason.

If I can't go to the J/Y soon, & these = GC perches I may have to get these from ya!

yep same ones. all impreza springs taper at the top in the fronts. so if you want to run any impreza spring you'll have to get these. FYI most boneyards wont have these to sell as they only sell the strut/spring as a whole unit. at least thats how it is out here in oregon. these run $16ea at the dealer.

I have a u-pull-it J/Y in my area (kinda) that sells the entire strut for $17.90!
The perches can be purchased seperately & will probably cost less than $10 for the pair, I just gotta get them off....

holy crap thats cheap!! man, i'd like to hit up that yard.

If I can't get over there soon i may be pm'ing you for your perches.

I have mine sitting on a set of coilovers for an Impreza 2.5 RS perchs as low as they will go if your interested in some pictures

Sure, post some pics.

shes junk but here she is

Wow that is low.
I think we may have the same FMIC.

ha could be I bought it still new in the box off of a guy intown who needed money box says yunkanmi or something.... yeah the coilovers are umm... all the way down

I put the "RS" springs on my car today & it looks nice!
Not too low, no harch ride, I like very much.

Funny thing is that my car does not look like any of the pics, the front wheel has 0 fender gap, while the rear has a slight gap - giving the car a raked look.

I have the RS springs on AGX's set to 1 up front & 4 out back for a smooth city ride that handles OK.

Reviving this, did the spring you used the front and rear set from a 2.5 RS or is it two sets of fronts? I'm wondering because of spring rates, I don't want that saggy butt look. This would be for a sedan as well.

You'd have to run a front and rear set. Which reminds me, I need to do this.

You think that wouldn't cause that "saggy butt" stuff? I wouldn't think it would because it's a sedan.

I have gc 2.5rs springs on my second gen sedan, with saggy butt. It might be different for a first gen since they're more similar to the gc chassis though.
