superlows will KILL your struts very very quickly just giving you some prewarning!

I'll be keeping these ones until I have finished full exhaust, tune etc
Will let you know if I sell these.

Yeah I know, struts are pretty much stuffed anyway. I'll probably upgrade to coilovers in the next few months.

Have you put any more thought into squeezing some more power out of the engine. Like strapping on one of those intake fans

Look awesome!

Just a tip, don't buy clear side indicators off ebay.
They are cheap and nasty and you have to wire up a globe holder if you can somehow find one anyway.

Buy them here or direct from subaru..

does this apply to all lowered springs?
