Anyone have their stock 04 STI suspension up for grabs? - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Kostamojen · 2005-04-28, 11:09 PM

Hey guys, im sick of the stock rs suspension...

So I was curious if anyone had their stock STI suspension sitting around that I could buy, see how it is on a GC.

Nick Koan · 2005-04-29, 06:51 AM

Don't have it, but welcome back. Its been a while.

MattR · 2005-04-29, 07:22 AM

How much are you looking to spend? I will entertain an offer.

sperry · 2005-04-29, 10:44 AM

I've got some stock WRX bits... but that's not much of an improvement over the RS stuff.

Also, welcome back dude!

Kostamojen · 2005-04-29, 03:54 PM

Bleh to WRX bits

(unless its a WRX steering wheel with an airbag! I could use that)

Matt, I'm not sure whats fair, havent found many STI suspension for sale. $300, 400, 500? I'd probably want to try it first, see if it is an improvement or not, not to many folks have tried.

Kostamojen · 2005-04-29, 04:09 PM

Oh and I was really trying to plan on make it to the auto-x on the weekend to try out your custom made courses

But my tranny is basically shot, and I dont think it could take that kind of abuse and still make it back home...

I've got one off my donor car, but the steering wheel rim has some abrasions form glass (car was rolled)

Did the Airbag deploy? And got any pics of the abrasions?

sybir · 2005-04-29, 08:54 PM

I'll take some pics. Airbags did not deploy, of course.
Basically, the wheel rim is just a bit abraded, tiny cuts.

Kostamojen · 2005-04-29, 10:36 PM

I'm not super picky, so you peaked my interest

I could probably just take a look in person at it. Let me know if you will be around this weekend.

OK

Kostamojen · 2005-05-03, 05:44 PM

Hmm, i can get a v7 takeoff suspension for 475 shipped that has about 1000km on it..

Anyway, I found out that I need a new roll connecter to fix my airbag light and non-functional horn... Pming aaron

Kevin M · 2005-05-03, 06:22 PM

that's a good deal, you should grab it.

Kostamojen · 2005-05-05, 05:27 PM

Well after reading this write up, I decided that its not worth it to try a GDA suspension... http://www.jdmpartstx.com/gc8_suspension/
