there would have to be some cash included in the changeover. Billies aren't worth that much

If that's the case couldn't you just raise the Teins to a more suitable and comfortable height? Not to mention adjusting the dampening level a bit softer? Because the Bilsteins for the MY04-MY06 rode quite harsh.

Yikes! Sorry, didn't mean to go off on a tangent in your thread.

The teins are great but i do drive around mostly on soft setting which can be adjusted on the fly thanks to the Edfc,there going to be sold anyway before the car goes so i thought i would put beilsteins in untill then because the stock suspension on my model are just ridiculous.

So wagon and sedan springs are different?

There about 18 months old.
This model is called Tein Gt Wagon,just the rear has a slightly stiffer spring rate than the tein flex,i presume its because the wagon is a touch heavier than the sedan on the rear.

I have a set of stock GT Wagon springs if you need them.. open to suggestions of swaps..

Swingn.. I think AVO TMIC for 4 x OEM Springs is a great swap ;)

Fronts are the same, rears are difference.. you can not fit sedan rear springs to a wagon, or vice versa they will not fit!
