      I've been running the same K sports for a year and a half now, got a bung of autoX and street driving on them with no problems. Also I found that if u buy a set of Cucso camber plates they will swap right on and you have adjustable camber in the rear.

        I like hearing this. I have my front cusco plates and the rears should be on there way. You used teh BG GTX ksports, correct?

            If you are responding to me, I know that. This whole thread is actually about the BF ksports. I believe trailrider has the BG awd knuckles so I was verifying his setup, as I also have the BG kunckles on my BF.

                  Im not entirely sure myself yet, im hoping trailrider with confirm. I only assume because the Ksports have their own strut tops if you buy the bf kit and the cusco ones are used to adapter the bg kit, from what I understand.

                      Where are most of you buying from? Any advantage to going through a more established retailer or is getting the best price the way to go? I only ask for warrenties sake.

                        So after getting to drive on these for a few hundred miles, I agree with the rest of these guys. They are great for street driving. they feel very similar to my stock WRX's suspension. I have a feeling once i replace all my worn bushings, and get it aligned that they will feel even better!

                          KAinjection, if you are still on this forum, are these struts still performing well? I am considering a set for my car on 323 day....tomorrow. Would appreciate an update.

                          Thanks, Steve.
