Description
The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear, but is fully operational and functions as intended. Removed from a 2011 STI with less than 19k miles of use. Please note, the front top hats on the struts will need to be replaced with either your OEM tophats or any other tophats of your choice. There is 1 front strut that is a OEM Subaru strut and not a Bilstein strut, please be aware of that. Other than that, the struts are fully operational with no issues.
These struts are manufactured by BILSTEIN exclusively for GTWORX using customized SPORT/TRACK valving matched to the RCE Yellow or Black performance springs. GTWORX has filled the need for a capable high performance damper for the 2008-2014 WRX.
After observing the poor results of pairing lowering springs with the standard Subaru dampers, GTWORX decided to start from scratch and develop an entirely new spring and damper package in conjunction with the world-renowned shock experts at BILSTEIN . The goal was to transform the WRX into a precision handling machine. Extensive testing was conducted at BILSTEIN USA West headquarters in Poway, California to perfectly match the monotube, gas charged, inverted front struts and rear shock system with Racecomp Engineering springs. Several damping profiles were considered, with the final selection exceeding all expectations. An emphasis on low speed bump and gas pressure provide a platform to stabilize the chassis and is normally recognized as a reduction in initial body roll, pitch, and dive. These dampers also provide an excellent option for stock class autocrossers looking for an OEM fitment damper that has firmer damping and large amount of gas pressure to pair with stock springs.
The rear shocks feature a five-position adjustable circlip for -10 mm, -5 mm, 0mm, +5 mm, and +10mm rear ride height. Designed for both WRX sedan and hatchback, these struts make your Impreza handle like it should from the factory!
Set of four struts. Fits all 2008-2020 STI.
