Default Springs(TysonProKit,BrittenH&R) Are DONE(Britten Rules!)

We'll me and Britten mostly him lowered his Legacy and my WRX. His Legacy is slammed to Hell City. Mine is still your typical Eibach Pro-KIt but much better looking :wink: . It took about 9 hours all told but not all working, Maybe about 4 for his car and barely 3 for mine. We got this shizzit down now. I think we could bust a spring install in a little over 2 hours now maybe even less depending on if we found an even better compressor than we had. Our compressor worked well. But the fact is the faster you can get the old spring down and out and everything settled the faster the job will go as a whole. The actually taking apart and putting on was a peice of cake. And Art and Evan there was absolutely NO! more spring perch target practice the rest of the day. Britten had that airgun/spring compressor thing worked down an artform. First impressions of my car are:
----

WOW.
SWEET.
HELLO CORNER, GOODBYE CORNER.

Currently I can feel no weirdness in the steering, nor can i hear any weird sounds like bending, snaping, squeaking, pushing, chirping, sexing? Looks as though me and Britten pulled off a flawless install. His wife kept calling and I feel bad I was keeping him from his family. I hope she wasn't too mad, man.

and NOW the pictures. Sorry they looked cleaner(more in focus) when i was tkaing them.
INstall pictures on on Brittens camerea.

TEIN S-tech's lower it more.

02+ WRX Sedan: (Front: -2.0 in; Rear: -0.7 in)

Spring rates:

02+ WRX Sedan: (Front: 218 lbs/in; Rear: 157 lbs/in)

I believe they lower the most for springs.
