Notes: Rubs slightly on hard cornering in the front with it lowered this much. Still could go an inch or so lower if the wires were stock width. Fenders rolled.

Car Year: 1993
Model: Sport Sedan

Struts: KYB AGX Adgustable
Springs: Whiteline GroundControl

Notes: Front springs required GC impreza top spring hats. cost like $15 and went right into place with no modification, Struts where kinda anemic for the springs and need to be ran at full damp, which ruins the usefullness of adjustable dampners.




Same setup with 215 40 17 gforce sport on 17x7 Prodrive p1s

'04 WRX KYB GR-2 struts

It handles well (with the help of WRX front and Whiteline rear swaybars) but the springs are a bit much for the dampers. I might pick up a set of AGX for them.
