DrD123 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I think realistically it is a bit more than an inch, more like 1.5 ish drop. I added a 1 inch spacer and it still dropped down noticeably. The first bit of compression seems a bit stiffer than stock, but they firm up really quick to way over stock. I would say the firm end of the progressive is about where the 13+ seem to fall if I recall some of the reviews correctly. I love them for their feel, and if you already have other suspension upgrades, swaybars and links then these will complement them nicely. However, if you want a strictly firm suspension these probably aren't for you. I am looking to firm things up a bit - but don't want a significant drop. So maybe I'll go with the 13 springs... I dunno. where do you source spacers? an 0.5" drop would be acceptable, I think... I like the idea of the firmer spring, but which stays more stock-ish for small bumps...

Humble Rumble Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Those are from Australia, correct? Yup. They’ve been out of stock since January (I missed the last set by one day, they sold them the Thursday before my check hit Friday), and will be out of stock until August. Found a brand new set in CT thanks to RikGT and snagged them. 2012 Legacy 3.6R Build Thread 5th Gen Legacy BM/BR Body Kit Compendium Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewdogg Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Thanks for the heads up. I checked the part numbers and they are indeed the same between the LGT and STi. I'll switch the oil pump out for an AEM fuel pump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car is from 2014 From top to bottom: Front: strut mount->conical washer->coil spring mount->bumpstop->coil spring->lower spring mount->strut/shock. The rear doesn't have the conical washer or bearing in the strut mount. Most people reuse the coil spring mounts as they don't wear out quickly.

Leggygirl Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Thank you! I knew there was something missing. I looked at the Subaru diagram for the front suspension and they only have the mount, spring, strut and bum and dust cover. There’s no conical washer or upper spring seat and rock auto doesn’t seem to have it either . Does Any one have the part numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car is from 2014 I did not like the KYB dust covers (I assume those are the Sb103/sb113- bellows) I bought a set of them and had to modify them to so they would work and I wasn't happy with the way they came out. I think they are universal dust boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leggygirl Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I also did have a question about the dust cover and the bump stop, is the bump stop suppose to slide down all the way down to that silver plate on the strut? Or does it rest at the top ? When I tried assembling it I had to force it down a bit until it was resting on that silver plate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspension compression will move it up there anyway.
