Jack the front and see if the strut is loose or clicks when the steering wheel is turned?

Sti pinks springs are a touch heavier than the stockers iirc...

Stock spring rates are allegedly 3kg F, 4.6kg R. STi ones are listed as 3.975kg F, 6.014kg R

Is anyone running the STi Pink springs? Would like to know if they are any lower than the stock Spec-B setup

Yes generally 10-20mm but YMMV on how sagged your current springs are :)
And also what model/year Sti springs you get...
So try to get springs from and for your car... Eg auto sedan...
