STI struts, what will work?

Are there STI struts that are workable in our SVX? I'm interested in cost of struts. If I'm looking at Koni's that cost more that the car is worth, forget about it. At 117k miles on a 92 what issues should I consider re struts?

Nope, might as well sell the car worth less than a set of struts

Tom, you got a hard heart. Cash for clunkers is history if you've missed the local news

Re: STI struts, what will work?

I just think Tom as well as many others are sick of people being cheap with these cars. They are 13-18 years old and are going to need work and things replaced. They are uncommon cars with very little to no parts compatability with other vehicles and so people need to be prepared for any costs needed for routine maintenance as well as parts wearing out due to age as well as wear and tear.

On what basis of expertese do you eliminate All WRX STI struts to be modified for the SVX? I read a thread where someone was doing exactly that. How do I know you know what you say is fact?
