Hi

I'm after a set of Spec-b Wagon springs for my 04/05 Wagon. Looking to return vehicle to standard for sale. If anyone has front and rear that would be great.

Regards
Craig

Craig, what springs do you have now? I have Spec B springs that I'd like to swap out for some lowered springs, so please let me know what you've got.

Cheers
Lee

This is more than likely wrong, but just putting it out there in case I did hear correctly while at PHAT GT's house. I thought I heard that the springs in the Spec.B were just the regular springs from non Spec.B but in the Bilstein shocks?

Pretty sure you are correct.

In anycase, if the car is an MY04 / MY05 GT, there was no Spec B variant in Australia. In the pre-face lifted models only the 3RB & the TB STI (MY06) came with different shocks (3RB) or shocks & springs (TB STI).

Hi Guys

Spoke to Subaru today and the Sepc-b Springs are differnt from standard. Yes My model never had spec-b but later model springs fit.

I currently have STI pinks and even though thery are not bad just thought it might help my sale.

Regards
Craig

well I'm more than happy to swap my stock springs for the pinks if you're after standard. Let me know.

I have some spare springs too. And would be happy to pay the postage both ways for the swap if you want to change the pinks with me. ;)
But obviouslyt Hotwire is in first. :)

Thanks for the offer guys.

Subaru keep asking me what type of transmission i have for springs. Even Japan parts asked the same thing so i assume it's important the springs are designed for the type of vehicle you have. Someone might know why but the STI springs in mine came out of a manual and my car is auto.

Might have a set today. But will keep the offer open.

Thanks
Craig
