I never thought I'd like a forester as much as I like this one. very well done, dude.

[TruTaing]

Awesome work! That rear fitment is ridiculous! Great looking Forester!

what coilovers are you on?

[itohead]

what coilovers are you on?

unfortunately, a set of racelands :p. they've been holding up fine, but I'm looking into something more solid. maybe a set of bc extreme lows. I know this dude that gives people small discounts in the subaru community in the northwest, so I'll go through him. either that or set up some air management, or bag over coils. we'll see what happens.

just curios because my girlfriend has a 99 forester on rs struts and lowering springs and its pretty low but she wants coilovers pretty dang bad so trying to figure out what to get for it. ive got racelands on my 08 wrx and im pretty pleased with them but your right they dont go low enough

For how low I am, I need something stiffer, better quality, If I was at a more conservative ride height, I definitely wouldn't mind them. but kinda sucks at this height. If she wants to go pretty low, guys should invest some quality coilovers with a descently stiff spring rate, or with dampening adjustments, etc. my personal opinion anyway

[sparksuby]

well shoot me a pm if you get new ones they'd be a good start for her.

[itohead]

Absolutely man, I'd sell them for really dirt cheap! I'd say, mid to late summer I should hopefully be getting new suspension.

[Geppetto]

Very clean, I'm pretty sure I've seen you around town.
