OEM from the dealer or a set of KYB GR2 struts. From what I've read the KYB's are just a bit stiffer than the OEM ones. I'm very close to a strut change on my 2000 L & I'll most likely go with the KYB's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FOR STABILITY. THIS IS MY 1ST SUBBIE IN ABOUT 10 YEARS. NEVER HAD THE $ FOR THE WRX, SPENT MY TIME TUNING CIVICS AND VW'S (I HAVE A 64 BUS THAT MIGHT GET A SUBBIE MOTOR CONVERSION). I'M NOT TRYIN TO "SUPER TUNE" THE FORESTER, JUST SET IT APART FROM THE SOCCER MOMS RIDES. I DIDNT REALIZE HOW MANY WERE AROUND MY TOWN. I STARTED TINTING IT TODAY. TOMORROW I'LL FINISH WITH THE TINT AND START BUILDING A SMALL SPEAKER BOX FOR THE HATCH. NOTHIN CRAZY.... JUST RESPECTABLE. 1999 FORESTER 89K @ $5600-SLIGHTLY SCRATCHED UP AND POORLY SPRAY PAINTED RIMS..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAP LOCK'D Posted May 10, 2005 Author Share Posted May 10, 2005 Thanks Subbie Gal, I Was Planning On Some Sort Of Anti Sway System. I'm Down With Pickin Up Front And Rear Lower Sway Bars. I Havent See Any Strut Tower Bars (upper). They Made The Biggest Difference On My Honda-the Rear Inpeticular. And I'm Gonna Do Something About The Clutch. It "feels" Very Weak-engages Fine, I Just Feel Like I'm Gonna Break It. I'll Tweek This Subbie.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
