Back in stock and in heavy demand are the 05/06 STI specific Tanabe GF210 lowering springs, only at CVR. Thats right, they also fit the 06 STI!! Some information below on these:
The GF210 coil spring is geared towards maximum performance, without compromising daily driveability. A subtle drop provides an aggressive stance, while the higher spring rates (+20% - 30% over stock) provide excellent handling and vehicle stability characteristics. These springs provide a very noticeable gain in performance when installed.
The GF210 is well mated with a performance shock upgrade to extract the full potential of the coil spring, but will also work with factory equipment.
Each coil spring application is tested for fitment and optimal weight distribution for sportier handling.
SPECS 05-06 STI GF210
-Lowering: 1.0 front/.05 rear
-Spring rates: 5.8 front/4.4 rear Progressive
-MSRP $280/CVR $195 Shipped

These have been a great addition to the options available for 05 and 06 STI's, providing a great stance and improved handling without breaking the bank. Check out a link below from one of our customers cars.

We have several sets of these back in stock finally, but they are selling fast, so get yours while you can! All those on the preorder list have shipped, check your emails for tracking :)
Now, to clear up some confusion and answer many of the community members questions, we will explain the different versions of the GF210 by year, and availability for other years as well.
The GF210 used to be available in general for 04-05 STI's, part number TGF092. This was revised specifically for the 04 STI, after the release of the 05/06 STI GF210. Tanabe's ever rigorous R&D discovered this to be a bit too general for the specific needs and differences of the STI model years, which led to the 05 and now 06 specific applications.
-GF210 04 STI (Part Number TGF092)
-GF210 05/06 STI (Part Number TGF107)
Many people refer to the 04 version as the "old" GF210, but they are in fact revised specifically for the 04. Another benefit many are not aware of is that they both fit ALL STI models, so its purely a choice of specs and spring rates.
SPECS 04 STI GF210
-Lowering: 1.3 Front/1.0 Rear
-Spring Rates: 4.3 Front/4.0 Rear Progressive
-MSRP $260/CVR $180 Shipped

These springs are also available for the GC8, and 02-03 WRX model years, post or contact us for any info regarding these applications. We have found that a great combination for the 02-03 WRX is the GF210/KYB AGX. Given how closely Tanabe has worked with KYB in the past, its no surprise. Those not wanting such an agrressive spring rate should look into the DF210 and NF210, differences will be explained below.
