Any pics with them installed on your car? To see the ride height? Why you selling them?

No pics with them on my car. I'm selling them b/c I have a wagon and they cause too much sag in the rear for wagons for my tastes. I ended up using wagon specifc springs for my setup.

BTW- Not to thread-crap (and I'm no JDM guru), but AFAIK these are not the same as "pinks." I have V7 struts on my sedan, and later added the pink springs. There was a slight drop and they are stiffer.

That said, these are still an upgrade over OEM.

Will the V7 springs work on stock 02 WRX struts? If so, approximately how much of a drop will result from the swap?

Thanks.

You might have had a different set of V7's.

These are RA's which have rates that are almost identical to the pinks though have a little less of a drop.

THE "pinks" are 252/217. 225/195 is not "almost identical."

These are perfectly good springs, I loved my RA setup... no need to compare them to something they're not.

I'm even more confused after reading yo thread since it seems to confirm my spring rates are pinks but not the JDM ones? :confused: Ok I guess thx for the heads up but damn that's confusing.

Still a great deal though as the Pnks are ~ $300 new and I guess those JDM ones r more like $400?

I just read through that entire thread...

If I were to pick up the v7 springs, I'd want to be interested in v7 struts to compliment them, or would I be fine with stockers? This post (http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showpost.php?p=7674167&postcount=30) by BigSkyWRX concerns me a little bit...

Check your color codes...

Your V7's are not RA's...the rates are 188 and 163 (15% stiffer fronts, 50% stiffer rears...about) stock STi ride height...

I have these on AGX's....perform well...I like them
