I thought it was still in development?

Is it definitely the Prodrive kit you have or something like Eibach?

Edited to say,

I've just checked Subaru's website and there is no mention of WRX springs, only STI ones......

Look under accessories, and click WR Sport for MY03 cars and

Set of Four Spring

Part No. SACC2555
£ 225.00 (including VAT)

is listed for STI but not for WRX.

Well you'd better give Subaru a phone and tell them, cos they don't list them as an accessory, plus, I don't think the Prodrive springs (STI 8) are made by Eibach are they?

I think you find they are! just painted blue by Prodrive and sold in a Prodrive box

As long as the suspension has'nt changed from 02 to 03 models, i would of thought that these springs will fit

No the spring kit for the MY01/02 & MY03 are different. Answers from Mike Wood on these threads

Regardless, the answer to Jabbroni's queestion is still no.

You can get Prodrive springs for MY01-02 WRX's, but NOT for the MY03 WRX, as per Prodrive's website.

If you read Mike Woods posts above, you will see that they are due out any time now for MY03, like I said above.

To quote Mike Wood, on 24th October....
We haven't had them yet but you can still place an order so you get them as soon as they are available.
Get your order in Jabbroni, and as soon as the springs are released the dealer will ship you a set.

Question

Is the Prodrive spring kit the same as the Eibach pro spring kit as at £225 it seems a bargain as the Eibach kit comes in well over £300

What Eibach kit have you seen at £300?

The dearest I have seen them is close to £200, much the same as the Prodrive ones....

No the Prodrive kit has been developed by Prodrive themselves using Eibach springs manufactured to their specification.
