You know you loosing your mind when the EVO starts to feel softly sprung!
getting out of my WRX - the EVO felt hard as a rock when I first bought it two months ago
Now that I am making more HP - and getting used to the car - NOW its staring to feel . . . . SOFT
I'm acutally starting to think of putting in lowering springs or coil overs
When I first got it I was thinking man - this is perfect - who would ever change this suspension - - now after I am starting to master the car and get used to it I am feeling a better suspension would be nice
Anyone else thinking this way yet ?

Dude, I swear I was thinking the same thing about a week ago... Maybe they are just more "broke in"?? I was thinking this until I went over a rough roadway one day, then it all came back to me.. It seems that all the roads that I'm used to driving on, I have found the smooth lines to follow... hahaha.... I have noticed that my gears are waayy much smoother now though...

I am thinking the same thing then I thought about the Warranty. Also, if I am ever going to lower my ride, I want the real deal, full coilovers and shock combo.

The EVO struts are very good - I am thinking that all we would need to reap substntial gains is a set of springs that lowers the car about 1" and makes it a tad firmer
H & R has released a spring set - but sometimes their stuff is VERY firm

after 1 year of driving this beast , I finnally got to my sences and ordered a full APEXIC suspension with adjestable dampers and hight adjestment. And am looking for new rubber too.... the old rubber is totally gone.. and I mean totally...
The EVO stock suspension is hard but not hard enought and don't you think that the EVO is a bit to high for a sport car ?

All kidding aside, I think lowering the car could make it hit more stuff than it does already. I've been the way of the slammed cars before and the price of momentary inattention can be rather high Also, I don't know what would happen with various types of set ups out there, but when I lowered my Integra GSR, I used Ground Control coil-overs with eibach lowering springs and 4 way adjustable KYB struts. The ride really suffered... I did get used to it eventually, and it did seem to corner better but in retrospect, I did have regrets about the unintended results of the change. Also, the Greddy Sport cat back I installed was pretty loud. And that's supposed to be the quietest aftermarket muffler out there... Anyway, I'm a bit reluctant to start changing suspension bits around in my EVO, however, I'd love the chance to ride in a modified one so i can feel the difference for myself. Who knows, I might get all pumped up about it and change the whole enchilada in my car
