I've got a problem with my latest spring install - there's a knocking sound from one of the fronts, so I have a question:

When installing the front spring (Pinks/SpecB Bils in my case) should you just use some man power to compress the spring enough to start the top nut, or is it better to use spring compressors so that you can tighten up the top nut freely. Another way to put it - should you tighten the top nut (to 41 ft-lbs) against the spring's tension, or should you torque it up and then release the spring from the compressor? Does it matter? I did it the latter way this time, and I think that might be the problem...

hey guys i'm looking to lower my spec b. and was looking at either cobb springs or H&R springs. has anyone used these before? if so how was your experience with them? also I heard swift springs give the car a pretty good stance, what is the drop with those springs and has anyone had a less than positive experience riding on them? thanks for your help guys

Legacy STi Pink springs are the way to go for your spec B Bilsteins, get in on the group buy here: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/jdm-sti-pinks-springs-group-buy-132198.html

Pretty sure neither the Cobb nor the H&R springs were 'specifically' designed for the SpecB bilsteins.

Negative. Changing your ride height shouldn't need any readjustment of your headlights, unless your ride height was not changed equally in the front and rear. (change of angle)

Yeah, that is the case with my car. The ion fronts gave me a drop of 7/8" up front and raised the rear almost 1/8" with the HD rear springs.

I scanned through this thread to see which way to rotate the vertical alignment bolt to go up and didn't see it. Can someone chime in on that? I'm running ion springs and the drop in the front probably warrants an adjustment i think.

Also, OP, great thread, I never new and always wondered why my left headlight seems a little lower than the right, thx!

Anybody have this axleback exhaust?

JDM Legacy Sti quad tip mufflers

Curious to hear what they sound like, although I know the JDM legacy uses the EL headers, and they are mega $$$, still wanna hear them....

OK, HKC-Speed just sent me this link to a video clip, not sure how to post it as a video...

looks good! What wheels are those?

Looks like 18" Prodrive Gt1's? Very nice.

(I just ordered mine in gold:rolleyes:)

One generally wants to match spring and shock rates.

 

The US spec.B has the same shocks as the JDM GT, so it makes sense to use the JDM GT pink springs with the US spec.B shocks. Some people upgrade their US Legacy to the firmer JDM spec.B shocks, so it would make sense for them to use JDM spec.B springs.

Gotcha! So then I'm looking for the ones made for the GT for sure.

Next question, which I should be able to have answered by calling, When you order the springs (from EdoPerf, racecomp, japanparts, etc) can you order fronts and rears meant for different models as they stock them? Example, Edo sells them by AT(3021000f/8021010r),MT(3021010f/8021000r), or SpecB(3021020f/8021020r) - (note: they've mixed up f/r on their website) - so can you even order 3021010f with 8021010r? I guess I'll find out....

I'm also thinking about Wangans, they were recommended to me by Han's GT for my application, but too bad no one's got them on a specB AFAIK for a review, here's a pic a their numbers... they're also a little more expensive than pinks ($620 Canadian shipped)...

Advice wanted!

I'm looking into putting these (STi pink) springs on my '09 specB with stock bilsteins. Do you guys think these are the best choice if I'm looking for an even drop but not a slammed look? What other brands should I be looking at? I can't afford to lose much in ride quality though because the roads where I live are like back alley roads in Afghanistan (at least right now!). Are these going to wear out the bilsteins in a few years? Price seems to be the only down side, who are the best vendors for these?

Any comments/advice greatly appreciated!
