This is the ULTIMATE spring/strut setup for 05-07 STI's.

I'm putting up a "Feeler" thread to see what interest there may be in my current suspension setup. The reason for the sale is because I want to go back to coilovers for the 07 STI beast. The reasons are -

1) It's use will now be strictly weekend/track use. Not a DD, not a cold weather car any longer.

2) I don't need semi-compliant, heavier suspension (read: struts/springs) for track use. It's a perfect setup for DD'ing though and semi-frequent track use though.

3) With ride height adjustability and stiffer springs, I'll have the ability to fit wider wheels and rubber under the wheels wells (255/35/18 R888 on 18x8.5 +40mm track wheels) without rubbing.

My current setup:
- Ohlins FPS (05+ STI fitment)
- RCE Yellow springs (V2)
- Whiteline front camber plates
- STI Group-N hardened rear strut top mounts

As for my review of this setup, there isn't a better strut out there for the 05+ STI's. The Ohlins have 25-click rebound adjustability. The RCE Yellows set the STI at optimal ride height front and rear and balance the car. They are stiff springs so performance is definitely improved. They are also lowering springs, so they'll give your car a more agressive look.

My full review and pics as well from IWSTI journal:
TLP - UPDATE: Car ETA unknown. 600WHP on 109 Race Gas, 504WHP on pump - *Post 1898*

My cost:
I paid Racecomp Engineering USD$2,822.18 for this setup, not including shipping, duty, or GST. My landed cost was around $3,240.

Ohlins: USD$1,857.18
Springs: $339
W/L plates: $296
Group-N's: $240
Assembly: $90.00
TOTAL: $2,822.18

Shipping was $150, GST add 5% to converted CDN price, and +~$60 for UPS' lovely brokerage fee.
That brings the total up past $3,200.

Mileage:
3000 miles at most. I installed them late last year (November '07) and daily drove them until late March '08 when my car went off to Rocket Rally. Since then, there's been less than 1000 miles put on. Considering the cost of the suspension, I've got a ridiculously low number of miles on this setup, so unfortunately for me it means I'll have to take a hit selling so soon.

What I'm looking for:
$2,500 OBO, + shipping.
I'll also consider trades for a high end, low mileage, coilover setup.

They can be sent out completely assembled and ready to be installed.

I don't NEED to sell, just WANT to sell to better set up my car for the track events that I'm doing so this is still a feeler at this point. If the deal is right, then I'll for sure part with them. But I'm not going to give them away, especially considering this is a very high end FPS/spring setup.

free bump for the same suspension I have. Whoever decides to pick these up will be so happy. Seriously.
