I've never felt that Subaru's suspension tech/tuning was great. Whether on my 06 STi, 11 WRX hatch or the newer WRX/STI, the suspension leaves a lot to be desired.

With that being said, I've been...

I would say it depends on your use.

The V1 is height adjustable, but not damping adjustable.

The V3 is height adjustable, but also damping adjustable......both rebound and compression.

Assuming you're looking at these for camber correction?

If so, I wouldn't worry about it. 1.25" isn't a massive drop.

8RZ like I said, great street car. Overall I really liked my 2 Series. Unfortunately I bought it to a dedicated track car and it massively under performed in that arena IMO.

You'll be back :-)

I used to own a 2 Series (16 228i Track Pkg/M-Sport pkg). It's a great street car, but not a "sports car" in any sense. It's very numb compared to the 86.

Best of luck...

I think "below 50 degrees" is the key part of that statement.

Also, if the wheel is turned at all, it'll be much easier to light up the tires as well versus trying to go straight.

STI and Group N are different durometers. They are different, but I think even the STI mounts are considered an "upgrade" over the standard mounts in the 86 chassis.
