2014 WW MR "Beauty in Design" Build
Please let us know the initial reaction to the Ohlins. Btw, are you planning to install any other suspension bits other than the Ohlins? Pics of you ride height before and after would be great too
after a VERY long day..
here's a quick shot, I'm gonna try and take some nicer photos tomorrow

initial impressions:
ride quality is buttery, bumps very so much less jarring than the stock MR bilsteins. compared to my STi KW Clubsports they are well, incomparable lol. the KW clubsports are supposed to be KW's "best" coilover but they were extremely stiff and uncomfortable on the street compared to the Öhlins.
being that it was monsooning today, i could not really push the car at all in the turns. I'm autoxing sunday for the first time in this car so I'll post my impressions then.
eventually I will be adding cusco strut towers and a rear sway bar but I'm happy with it for now

You had me at buttery
. Stance is great and I love that the daily drive ability is already an improvement . So aside from the Ohlins kit were you recommended to change any other suspension bits ? I saw a couple of places that change something like tie rod ends or something similar . How thick of a sway bar are u gonna install ?
Thanks for sharing , really good stuff!

Hi guys, this is my build thread for my 2014 WW
With every car, I learn something new and with the STi, I learned a few things:
-To use only the best products or I'd end up spending more to fix it down the line
-Modding past the car's capabilities will really get you into trouble eventually (good 'ol EJ reliability
)
-Mod for yourself, not for others
