GF8 shocks
Hi guys!
On my GF8 year 2000 160kw i have BUGEYE STI shocks 20310FE340/350 and 20360FE340/350 springs are H&R 29356 http://www.h-r.com/bin/29356.pdf (they should be -1 not -2 beacuse of shocks which are pre 2003 ?!?) and rear top heads shuld be 20370AC241/251 or KYB number SM8101/2 beacuse originaly GF has 20370FA200 or KYB number SM5243, am I right ? Here i'm not sure if are SM8101/2 beacuse they are on original bolt holes of GF8 ... How is it possible that springs, strut top and top head goes together, are top heads from something else or are spring's top ends the same for GF8 and GD till 2003 and goes on SM5243 normaly ?
Front top mounts are the same within GC/GF,GG,GD,GDB right ?
So the question is, if I wan't to change shocks, and Ultra SR (31006/7/8/9) are too expensive for me, will be gut if I go for GG 10.00-10.02 ExcelG 334000/1/2/3 for which in KYB catalogue or in Subaru FAST are top mounts the same as for GDB STI 10.00-10.02 or equivalent to KYB - Sachs 311810/1/2/3.
Will H&R springs work normaly ? In H&R catalogue is written that they are for pre 2003 WRX and STI, 2003+ is the code 29356-2.
Thanks for the answers!
greetings L
