If you plan on getting lowering springs, you will need to replace the struts within a year. It’s a quick fix – I wouldn’t recommend it. The struts will be shot in no time.
Maybe Tein coilovers aren’t the way to go for STis but they were a good buy for me. I researched for awhile before installing them. I don’t think the pillow ball mount is necessary unless you’re really going to hit the track. (I considered the pillow ball but I think the ride would be stiffer.) I have it set for “soft” while in the city and it’s relatively easy to live with.
Some people consider suspension mods more important than power – I would have to agree. You have a new confidence level that you wouldn’t get from adding power first. Driving feel was much better than my friend’s MR – we test drove and compared both. As long as you get a reputable brand you’ll be satisfied with the results.
