I've just had the above fitted to my 03 WRX wagon at Roger Clark Motorsport, and wanted to say what an improvement I've found on the way the car drives.

I have used the lightest springs BC do (50N/mm front and 40N/mm rear) which are only slightly harder than the OE springs and lighter than the STi set up. The adjustable damping means I can have a car which rides better than standard, or is a lot stiffer and responsive.

One of the big changes this set up has allowed is an increase in camber on the front. This has given me much better front end grip and the turn in is much more responsive.

Hopefully here are a few pictures of the suspension:







Really enjoying my car again, it feels like a new car again after finally getting rid of the tired, 10 year old OE suspension.

I run BC coilovers on my E36 328 track car, hard to fault for the money.
Glad to hear you've pleased with your results

When they're on a soft day to day setting do you find they hit the bump stops or have too much travel? This is the downside I found on another car I had that had coilovers.

iMy soft setting is only 2 clicks from the middle, so haven't got near the end of suspension travel yet. If I'm just going out for a blast, I firm it up a bit. There is the same travel on these as the standard units too.
