Stock height





Suspension comparison..







Half way there.



as low as I will go with it...





And bonus pics of the tow hitch and sti catback





It actually handles 100x better now. Almost like a wrx...

What hitch are you using? I have the Subaru hitch, and the muffler touches it. I had to use a Kartboy hanger on one side, and a stock one on the other. I so wish I could talk my wife into WRX suspension.

OEM hitch with longer hangers.

The ride is actually better now, it doesnt seem to "float" as much

Hmm, can you take a picture of the driver's side of the hitch? Mine is semi closed, and the longer hanger didn't fit. The tip of the muffler rests on the hitch.

Eric, i will take those pics this weekend.

After much debate we are trying a new temporary look for the grille. its a 20 footer if you know what I mean but its no finished product. I have ordered new pink and red sti front and side stickers as well as sti grille and tailgate badges.

So, I went to the local sticker shop and placed my order. Its hard to beat 2.50 a sticker.Then i asked for a piece of red vinyl sticker material, to try out what you see. I kinda like it, and I think it would look better if the stickers and badges are all the same color.

What do you guys/girls think?
