    What springs fit my bd?

    Hey guys just wondering what springs to buy for my 95 bd. I purchased kyb gr2s and need springs so what will work? I'd like a 1.5" drop but can't find it except for the be/bh chassis. Will they work? Help please! I need my buddy back asap! Lol

    Since no one else gave an answer, I'll try. If you bought the struts to fit a BD Legacy, not much, although someone on the forum may have some older lowering springs that would work. I understand that King Springs in Australia still makes them but then there's the wait to get them and shipping costs.

    Most people buy new or used WRX struts as then you can fit any WRX spring out there. It gives you a slight drop and of course more so with lowering springs. Perhaps you can use WRX springs on your struts if you change the spring perches but I haven't researched that at all.

    Meepers on the forum here is selling a sweet STi suspension https://sl-i.net/FORUM/showthread.ph...X-5-speed-swap
    That's a great way to go. Also he lives in Arizona so they won't be rusty.

    Good Luck!

    Where are you located? I have some BD specific Eibach springs that I have been having second thoughts about installing since I have 18" summers and will likely have to roll my fenders or more to not rub. I also have spare KYB rear top hats.
