I'm done with the SVX...
 
Modding that is...
Today I put the finishing touches on the pearl. Took 8 hours but I now have Konis/Mychailo's Springs. Initial reactions, I like them. Def. a lot less dive during braking/accelerating. Ride height isn't that much different. I'll take pics in a few days once everything settles and the ride height settles out. But so far its good. Sunday I have an AutoX and that'll be the real test.

You mean the pink springs that got all chewed up by the spring compressor?

I'll take pics either tomorrow or Friday.

Kerry,
Yeah, I think you're going to like the combination! I really think it's what Subaru should have offered as a "sport" package - definitely a step up without knocking out fillings whenever you go over a bump.

p.s. +1 for the pics!!

I agree Bill, its not a harsh day and night. When we did the suspension in my friends GTi it was a harsher ride but with better cornering. But with this setup you can feel it's stiffer and more responsive but thanks to the Konis the ride is much more civilized. I'll take pictures this afternoon when I get back from doing some errands and I take the time to check the loose Top Hat.
