I'm a former 2005 Legacy GT owner, currently driving a 2009 Legacy sedan (stock 2.5i), but I just test drove a low-mileage 2015 3.6R and I'm fairly interested in buying it. However, I wanted to know if there is a suspension upgrade path for this car that is similar to the STI Pink/Bilstein combo that worked so well on the 4th gen Legacies. I did some searching on the forum and online, but I haven't found much in terms of possible strut upgrades (I don't think Bilstein makes a set for this car?).
This car would be a daily driver, and I'd really be looking to make it handle more like a sports car, but not a track car. I think the H&R springs would probably be too low. Would a custom coilover set really be the only way to go with the absence of strut/shock upgrades? Or is there something I'm missing?
Ideally, I'd want a very mild drop (less than an inch), with a bit firmer handling that still behaves comfortably for daily driving. Maybe this can be achieved with upgraded sway bars on stock springs/shocks?
Also as a side note, does anyone know what the stock spring rates are for the 6th gen Legacy?
Thanks!
