  3. For those still looking for Eibachs, a quick google search produced a few links right off the bat Get them while you can, I love my Eibachs. http://www.autocarparts.com/part/274/6256 http://www.mosaicmotorsports.com/eibach-lowering-spring-subaru-legacy-turbo-2005-2009-p-7093.html http://www.directtuning.com/store/pc-25175-60-eibach.aspx
  4. ^^^ I have some Swifts for sale in the classifieds(wagon specific). They would probably match well with the Bilstein HD's.
  5. I havent put too many miles on since the swap, but my initial impressions are good. I think that for the amount of drop the Swifts offer combined with an even stance for the wagon (they are wagon specific) they are good springs. I just dont think they were matched with the correct strut (stock KYB). If I had them with Bilsteins they would probably be an excellent choice for someone who wanted the drop they offer with a good ride and handling. The Eibachs on the other hand were apparently made and tested with the stock struts and match pretty well with the stocker KYB's. I will eventually do the Koni inserts because I believe it would be an even better match with the Eibachs. I dont race my car on a track, or am into auto-x like some are on this forum. My wagon is my DD and I want as near to perfect combo of sportiness/comfort as possible. From the little time ive had the Eibachs on, they feel good...not a whole lot different from the Swifts but there is a noticeable positive difference. One example: speed bumps. I no longer have to almost creep over speed bumps, I can actually feel the suspension absorb the speed bump more since the swap instead of previous. Im happy I found a set and think I will probably be happy with these for some time.
  6. Yeah it doesnt look too difficult, but from what I understood the directions on where to measure from and cut were a little sketchy... Thats why I said Id like to do this on another set of stockers. Are the directions not screwy about where to measure and cut?
  7. Thanks! I also considered the iONS for the wagon, but I think they are like twice the price of the Eibachs (even though Eibach doesnt make a "wagon specific" spring) and with the spacers it sits just right and rides great too. My tails are some of ( i believe) the last of the Secreates. Someone else asked me the same question:lol: Next step is to eventually find some cheap-o stocker struts and throw in some Konis....dont want to take the chances of messing up mine and not having another set.
