KillerShark1978 Posted October 3, 2018 Posted October 3, 2018 I just purchased a set of eibach springs that are compatible with the G3 Hatchback WRX STI (as per picture) Will they also fit the WRX-S (G3 Hatchback 2009) ? For what its worth the current springs are not standard, the car currently has the Tein S-Tech Lowering springs, as where on when I purchased the car, I would sooner use the eibach springs if they are compatible for a 25mm lowering, which will raise the car from the 40mm lowering it currently has which is to low and has already done sever damage to the lower arm bushes which I already have the parts ready to replace. I just dont want to waste my time stripping it down this weekend to find that the springs don't fit, I will send these back and get the standard Kilen springs if I have to, but not if the eibach will do the trick
Jay762 Posted October 3, 2018 Posted October 3, 2018 I thought they were the same standard springs between WRX and STI just differences in ARB and hub but as recommended ping eibach to confirm
KillerShark1978 Posted October 4, 2018 Author Posted October 4, 2018 Have spoke to eibach UK support team and they where unable to give a definite answer, there exact response was, "The exact model of your vehicle is not on our catalogues, therefore we can not identify any of our coil springs to fit your vehicle" So really eibach dont support the WRX with springs except for the STI model, so am still stuck wondering if they will fit, but if anyone knows if the STI springs will fit the WRX then problem solved, I do know that the OEM numbers are different on the STI to the WRX, so they are not supplied with the exact same springs as standard, but that does not mean to say they wont fit.
