Morning all, will stock sti springs from a hawk eye fit stock classic sti struts? Failing that where can I find new OE parts for classics? There are some stock springs ending on ebay today just don't fancy the hassle of collecting to find they don't fit etc.

Thanks in advance

Josh


No mate the hawk eye is different spring

What you after ?

Cheers matt, after standard sti classic springs and top mounts and the knowledge in general really

Sti struts are expensive for what they are I think ! Plus most sets are 20 year old !

So nowhere sells OE quality stuff then?

well you wont get the sti struts brand new, showa stopped making them,

 

I got bilstein struts on my wagon , What you wanting to use the car for / trying to achieve?

  • Author

I have struts and fitted mate it's just got lowering springs on it that I don't want. I want to achieve more stealth than stance, the ride is pretty harsh so wanted to see if stock springs would make much difference, I'm not a moanin old goat just think feeling every stone is a bit silly lol (not actually that bad) I do need top mounts though can feel the wobble when hitting lumps and bumps in the road

just stick a set of uk turbo standard suspension on then ? Never really had a issue with it before

 

ARB & tyres make the big difference on a scoob i personally think

I've got some slightly larger profile tyres on order not massive difference 45's instead of 40's but doubt I could get a 50 in the gap lol I'll have a butchers around then, cheers mate


I went for elbach springs (about £ 200 new) as they're progressive rate .

They're about the same as my standard UK turbo springs in a straight line but stiffen up when cornering .

They also drop the uk scooby about 30 mm to the same height as the sti set up .
