Good deal...

JDMWERKS13 is a very reputable seller. Several of us have bought GR-2s from them.

I have been dying to see someone pickup this set of Vogtland springs... from what I can tell Vogtland are in the same realm as H&R in terms of quality.

If they work out well for a Subaru owner, I'll be picking up a similar set for Mrs Huffer's Accord.

That's an awsome deal. I'm with Huffer, I've been curious about the Vogtland springs. I was looking for a set for BD's but no luck.

I would get STi top hats too. Worry about the sway later, unless you have the money to do it all at once.

I ran Vogtlands on my last car

Damn good deal. Bought my GR-2s off this guy too.

He is who I bought my GR2 for my GT. I can't even get these at that price. Even my vendor thinks thats a crazy price.

Ok I haven't forgot about posting back, I finally got it in the shop today. My guy said the springs weren't fitting properly with the stock strut plates and I need different ones if I wanna make this work. So right now I'm just riding with the new KYBs until I have time to figure out the solution. Sorry no review yet!

Check out MkIII's thread on the H&R springs w/ Bilstein shocks... I think that's the solution.
