Impreza's don't have Bilsteins, they have KYB's.

Yes, but talk about taking a backwards step!

The OP sounds like they're assuming it's got Bilsteins, that's why I said about the KYB's.

[Guest]

will swap if I find a couple to buy, just trying to find a LH Bilstein/prodrive 1st. Give me a price if you have a couple struts, keen to get back on the road

[funkytown]

its still not clear mate.. do you know what you have for certain? and what do want to swap to

Kybs are red or black struts.

Bilsteins are yellow

[Guest boostin]

Weird!! Never seen that before!! But I wonder if the KYB has been painted grey and had a Bilstein and STI sticker thrown on it??

[Guest]

LOL no because it has Bilstein and Made in Germany pressed into it. Was wondering if they off a 22b? Part # starts 222

[Guest]
