Just a note though, I would only get the Starter kit lite if you have a very good shop doing the install. The rear camber bushings are a PAIN to install and many shops have screwed it up or take a very long time ($$$) to do it. The alignment process is also more difficult.

The "Cambo" package is a little more money up front, but the rear LCAs are super easy (and cheaper) to install and align. In general I recommend that package instead.

Hi!

Thank you for this recommendation. I am in the same boat - I've got the 2017 PP and am hesitant to just get a lowering spring for the sake of spring/shock matching. I am wondering:

1. What is the change that comes with the Sachs dampers? Is the change exclusively in the shock absorber (to perhaps a more aggressively valved unit), or did Subaru low-key swap out the springs as well?

2. Why your Yellow series and not the Tarmac (firmer & more progressive & with tender coil portion)? Would the Tarmac be under-damped? Similarly, have you guys had any experience driving a PP car with the Sachs dampers and your Yellow or Tarmac springs?

Thank you!
