You shouldn't mix and match JDM style springs with USDM top hats. The Swifts are JDM springs and, thus, the rated front drop is based on the use of a Bilstein-style top hat. If you use the Koni...

When I bought my 05 LGT 5MT wagon new in 2004, I also cross-shopped the Volvo V50 T5 AWD 5MT wagon. I really glad I didn't buy one of those. :lol: The Passat 4-Motion wagon was a no-go for me...

Agreed. Back in the 1960s and 70s, the original EMPI was known for high-quality aftermarket parts in the air-cooled VW world and, to this day, the original EMPI products still fetch top dollar. ...

Bilstein HDs and Legacy wagon-specific STI "pink" springs are a good combo with a mild (0.6") drop. You will need Spec B top hats for the Bilstein swap. Another option is to go with Konis with...

Ride quality has been about the only complaint I've heard about the turbo Sportage. Kia insists it's the sporty arm of Hyundai-Kia and will only package the 2.0T with a "sport" suspension. I'm a...
