Well it is finally time that I get some springs for my car. I have been looking at the Tanabe GF-210's, but I was wondering what you guys thought were a good choice to get. Keep in mind that I don't plan on doing any serious track events and I don't plan on upgrading my struts(I'm guessing this rules out the S-Techs), at least not anytime soon. Thanks in advance.

I personally have been looking at the STi Pinks for myself because of the strut wear issue. Theyre a bit more expensive than most springs out there, though. Im not too familiar with the Tanabe's, but they look good.

 

The only reason I haven't really looked into the pinks in because of the price and that they don't lower the car that much. I can get the Tanabe's for $185 shipped, whereas the STi Pinks are around $300. A friend of mine (the previous owner of Evan's car) had Perrin springs on his STi and the drop looked amazing and he claimed to like them a lot. I realize that the STi and WRX are different, but I haven't heard anything bad about the Perrins. Maybe Evan can provide some info about them.

 

if you're looking at the gf210's from the sti then you dont want to do that. i have them on sti struts and you'd be replacing yours quickly. they are stiff.

i'd look for something like the eibach which are a real nice improvement. htechs were good too. made the gap more even and rode nice. prodrives for a wrx, would be good.

 

for me ...Progress Springs see pics.. https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/s...d.php?t=263919

 

i have those sitting in a box. wasnt too happy with them. didnt like the ride and the rear sat too low. ive also heard a few people having them sag prematurely.

 

Well I have narrowed it down to either the Tanabe's or the Perrin's. Which do you guys think are better? Anybody have any experience with either?

 

which tanabes are you talking about?

 

I have H&R's and stock struts with 83K miles on them. The car rides GREAT!!!

 

thats a good choice. heard nothing but good comments on them.
