struts vs. coilovers
1. Ultimate set-up: Ohlins fixed perch adjustable dampers with either Swift or our own GTWorx springs
2. Awesome: Bilstein HD dampers (or EVO MR Bilsteins) with Swift or GTWorx springs
3. Good: stock EVO dampers with Swift or GTWorx springs.
Both the Swifts and our GTWorx springs are great. The Swifts lower the car a little more then ours, but are a little softer. Pick which ride height you like better.
You can add a rear swaybar and some Whiteline bushings if you like, but for just a DD, you don't really need to.

just my opinion....

Tough call. Kinda near 1, but it's a very different feel. Very comfortable, but still feel like coilovers. Really really good coilovers with great valivng though.

Cool, right now they are the top pick on my list based on the research I've done. If my budget allows next year I'm getting those. Separate adjustment of compression and rebound in particular are key for me.

I'll definitely give the KW's a hard look since they are a true 2 way.
Wait...are you saying the PSS9 combine rebound and compression in one adjustment? If so that really sucks, if anything a single adjustment product should keep compression fixed and adjust rebound only.

Ohlins single adjustment is rebound only, the way it should be.
We've been really happy with KW.

They've generated a bit of buzz in the subaru community but evom hasn't really been talking about them. They are priced similarly to the KWs (once you add camber plates and rear topmounts).

I don't really know much about the KWs, but I read somewhere that they also use koni inserts. Is this true?
