yeah, they will, but those springs will lower your car too much, since stock 04-07 wrx springs drop a 90-91 an inch or so. With these you're looking at 2" or more of a drop.

The other thing is that they are the stiffest springs on the market, designed for sti struts or ohlins. Whatever struts you have on your car will not be able to damp those things.

I'd suggest picking up some stock 04-07 wrx springs. You can get them for like $50.

COBB makes these
the COBBs are cheaper and the discription makes them sound like they have a better feel.

H&R makes a sport spring for the WRX 04+ with a 1.4 drop in front and 1.3 in the rear which im looking for.

cobb springs are not good. And yeah I'm not sure if you need perches. There is a thread around here somewhere that explains it that was started by derfahrer.

Like I said, do not get wrx lowering springs because your car will be way too low.

:twisted: I have perrin wrx springs on my ss. It's insanely low, my suspension geometry is probably very screwed up and I'm also probably on the bumpstops.

It looks "cool" but handles like poo. I learned my lesson and went with proper springs and struts on my Impreza. World of difference.

I have a set of 05 or 06 STI springs. I think they're 05, same thing though. I also have the front perches I believe.

I'll sell them to you for $75 shipped. I paid $100 shipped for them on ebay. Ended up just buying STI struts with STI springs from someone on here.
