I have a 2005 RS. My buddy has 05 STI and got aftermarket coilovers. Soooo he is selling me his:banana: Will they stock STI coilovers fit my RS??? And any idea in how much i should offer him for them.PLEASE HELP

no. the bottom pieces where it connects to the hubs is different on the front coilovers.

^^ Confirmed. They will not fit unless you swap out the hubs, and believe me, thats not worth it.

Tell me why its not worth it...?????

if u swap hubs than u need new axles because the spines wont be the same.... I THINK***

$$$

u need custom axles and new wheels since he has a 2005. then u need to do the rears too so u have the same lug pattern for the front and rear.

why spend lots of money to use a whatever suspension when u can just buy a good spring strut combo.

there are better options than the oem sti strut and springs.


just drop the idea.

what about the springs? would it be worth me takin the springs to put on my car or would that be too hard on my stock struts?
