Stock, OEM struts? ZN6

Can anyone get me the part numbers for these? Or should I order using the Subaru part numbers on the parts themselves? (Are they different P/N to the BRZ ones?) Installing springs with friends and more than one of them had potential damage owing to a pair of faulty allen tools so I'm thinking about just biting the bullet and getting a full replacement set-- uneven wear and settling and all that.

Also, could I get the part numbers for a BRZ set, owing to them being set for different springs? Thanks heaps guys.

Why not upgrade? Koni's are the only aftermarket AFAIK.

Ooh. Didn't know Koni -did- an aftermarket set on their own, might have to take the opportunity.

Koni does inserts for the front and replacements for the rear. Since the allen portion in the shaft is messed up anyways, you could just consider the fronts as donors anyways for the inserts.

Yeah and koni has 20% off right now. Also the dampers are identical between the frs and BRZ, only the springs are different.

Thanks for the input, guys. I'm going to drive (carefully) for a little bit, see if they survive, and if they don't I'll get her up and get them out, ready for the good old fashioned yellow monsters.
