    I'll get the final measurement by tonight. And bags hopefully in the future, got a lot of saving to do LOL. Here are my plans in the future:

    - ISC or BC racing Coilovers
    - 18x8.5 or 18x9.5 wheels with 215/40/R18 tires (Can't decide on wheels yet)
    - Fender roll (If necessary depending how low and wide my wheels will be)
    - Window Tint
    - Sports OEM rear spoiler
    - 15 STI Front Lip
    - Touchscreen Double Din Radio with better speakers
    - OEM hood protector
    - License Plate relocator


    Pretty Much my idea is low,slow,and show. I don't have any plans for engine work for the time being.

      definitely go isc, but get rear camber plates if you do. also dont do hood protector unless youre talking the clear stuff. its a perfectly good front end and doing that is just going to ruin it with hazing and possibly rust. i dont know if these have aluminum hoods like the older imprezas

          Thanks for the advice. Heard many great feedback with ISC. The oem hood protector was just something I'd like but will consider thinking about it.

                Goodness - that is a VERY small change in ride height.

                  tbh, it is a small change. I've expect it to go much lower. At the moment, just riding it until I can afford coilovers and will definitely will do before and after photos.

                    Full coilovers are the best way to go man. I'm sure there are companies out there that would offer you a great height adjustment.
                    I'm sure companies like Broadway Suspension would be happy to help: http://www.broadwaystaticsuspension.com/
                    There are other companies that make custom suspension for different cars, but can't quite remember their names.

                      Thanks for the advice. Really appreciate it. I did some research about broadway suspension but only thought they made it specially for euros. I will shoot them a email once I have the money saved up.

                          Sorry everyone for the months of delay. Been busy for the past couple of months and haven't updated anything on my car till today. Finally going to install Cxracing coilovers from 08-14 Wrx (non sti). These coilovers have 32 way damper adjustment and camber plates. There are many good review from the Lexus and Nissan community, Since I'm on a tight budget due to future plans. I hope these coilovers will give me the similar results like BC racing and ISC coilovers. Will be installing this weekend and getting the alignment done next weekend.

                            I personally would have gone coilovers, because it looks like it could get dropped a bit more. But not bad for springs. Now that I see the coils, then it's going to drop it nice.

                              CX and BC Racing and ISC are more or less all the same thing.

                                you obviously dont know what you are talking about...cxracing is nowhere near the quality of BC or ISC
