Sweet I happen to have a gd STi rear swaybar sitting in my closet.

That looks outstanding! Nice to see some products coming out. Now I have my brakes, springs, wheels and tires picked out.:thanks:

Their springs generally run around $350 from what I've seen on previous Subaru models. They'll likely have Bilstein valved struts at a later date as well.

Definitely too soon to say a price. Also our springs usually come with replacement bumpstops, so they may cost a little more than others but it makes a pretty big difference. We're a smaller company that doesn't do the massive quantities of cheap stuff, but we put a lot of energy, effort, and focus on just a few platforms and we think that can be felt when you drive a car with our springs. Stay tuned.

Sheesh... I think I have THREE GD rear sways kicking around, all different (17mm, 20mm, and 22mm adjustable). If they really do just bolt right up, this will make for some interesting play...

Oh, I REALLY REALLY want those springs.

^ not GD bars. sorry!

How's the suspension travel and geometry? I don't like tires to rub the inner fender wells when I drive hard or have passengers/weight in there; also, I prefer coilover or spring+shocks combo setups. Springs on stock shocks; bad idea, IMO.

As much as I'll probably want to change the suspension asap, I think I'll wait for some of your threaded body coilover setups instead :)

Can we get some shots from different angles? I'd like to get a better sense of the stance now lowered.

I was wondering about that. Seemed kind of odd since the rear suspension is derived from the GR.
