Like the title says, id like to buy some 04 sti struts and springs, LMK the asking price. We can figure out arrangements to pick them up or ship if necessary. Thanks

I don't have what you're looking for - though I do have new rear STi top-hats.

But, just in case you were interested - I do still have the old setup from when you owned the Radio Flyer. For $200 they'd be yours. Just something to consider.


And if you're interested - then consider this a friendly bump for an honest guy.

ahhh didnt even think about that. So they are the 04 WRX struts with perrin springs correct? Are they all still in good working order? How would those compare to the 04 stock sti struts/springs if you have any idea. Thanks Lee. I might be buying some 04 sti struts and springs from Kimo, but if that doesn't work out I wouldn't mind having part of the Radio Flyer in the new one

Kimo's a good guy and good to do business with.

I'm not sure what the spring rate of the perrin springs are so I cannot make an accurate comparison to the STi springs. I'm running stiffer than STi springs on my car so a comparision from it to the Radio Flyer intially probably doesn't mean much.

That said, the springs and struts are in the same condition as when you sold me the Radio Flyer. They got pulled and have been hanging out in my basement since. They got driven from where you trailer'd the car to my house and that was it.

If it works out and you want them - awesome - if not, no worries. I can get a P/N on the springs if you want (I did have a FS thread here for a while so a search in the parts shed for Perrin will probably turn up the thread where I listed the P/N). Otherwise I can get you the P/N this evening.

One thing to keep in mind is ride height. The setup I have will sit lower than the STi setup by a little. How much, I'm not a 100% sure but it will be a little lower.

yea.... well i would like to get the 04 sti set-up, but the only issue that comes to mind is how often they fail. I am wondering if the struts you have would make my car rub at all. Also I remember them being pretty stiff (for my standards), im wondering how that would work out in the winter... If I can't get the 04 sti struts from kimo, do you think I could either pay you a little extra to help me put them on, just to make sure they don't rub, or buy them from you, come home and install them and if they rub sell them back to you?
