Hi members of SL-i... My name is Lloyd and I'm located in Brooklyn, NY. Been stalking this forum for a while now and decided to become a member. I drive a 98 GT Limited. All stock (except for the windshield wipers). Looking to make some slight modifications to the handling and looks. Not going to touch the engine at all.

Welcome! Love white bds. Any plans for it?

Welcome. I'd suggest front and rear strut bars, thicker sway bars, stiffer struts, and lowering springs (wagons look sexy when they're dropped) :)

Thanks! SubieLegacy read my mind... I am looking for front and rear strut bars and also looking to change the struts and springs... for the strut bars, I'm checking out the cusco ones. But no idea about the struts and lowering springs, any suggestions?

02-07 Wrx will give you a nice ride and a good drop.

if you have some money, get KYB GR2 struts and H&R lowering springs.

Thanks! So 02-07 will surely fit a BD? I was thinking to put some STi struts and springs on them. 2nd hand though. But i'll also look into the KYB GR2 and H&R springs.

Yep I am running 04 Wrx struts, tophats, with Eibach springs. Much better of a ride over stock and handles better. Direct bolt in the only thing that needs to be done is to make a clip to hold the brake lines in the front in.

dont bother with strut braces all it will do is make you feel every little crevice on the road and there lots of them here. welcome to the forum.
