Seriously, you need to do some more reading on this site in the Suspension threads before you open up your first post with a series of questions that have been answered time and time before.

If you had done your reading, you would know that the BK/BG are essentially identical to lower as the BD. You would know that many years of GC, GF, SF and GM suspensions are interchangeable and provide differing levels of lowering.

You would also have discovered through your research that many of us have differing suspensions because we all have different preferences, budgets and requirements.

Perhaps if you posted up your idea for suspension we could give you some fairly repetitive opinions.

There are plenty of people who have spent little money and been perfectly happy, people who have spent a lot and been unhappy, and people somewhere in the middle (like me).

thats What Im on, except I had them include 03+ WRX rear pillow balls, and I have 7k/5k springrates. It rides amazing, not harsh, very good dampening.

GC impreza struts are the correct length to use, and the front mounts will work, but the rears on our cars are a larger bolt pattern, the same as WRX's

PLUS- I could still raise the car about 1 2/3 inch, or lower it about another 2"... which might look sweet, but wouldnt be able to drive it! lol (might actually be setting it as low as it will go, and max out my front/rear camber plates for the next car show!! :grin: )
