I am considering installing either used PP suspension or Koni Struts with the 2018 STi springs.

Install those with b6 bilsteins. B6s are meant for 20mm drop or less, and considering the 18 sti springs lower only 10mm, you’ll be in a perfect damping range.

I had Koni Yellow shocks for 80,000 miles before the FR strut blew, and while they were great, the bilsteins are so much nicer it’s a no brainer to spend the extra money.

PP shocks are Sachs which are nice but not Bilstein. Subaru’s most expensive car (2018 STi RA $50k) comes with bilsteins.
