STi -> GT Liberty?

  Top of Page

Hi all,
I currently drive an '04 STi which whilst fun on boost can be a drag the rest of the time and with three growing children I have been eyeing off the new GT Spec B.
I took one for a drive last week and was impressed with the ride quality (no real surprise there compared to my car!) and interior quality and gadgets. I felt quite removed from the action at first but then found a nice exhaust tone about 4000 rpm.
I'm very serious about one of these but would immediately Ecutek it (S&J tell me to expect 20+kw at wheels), short shift if available, and consider dropping it 10 - 15mm with some pink springs.
I would want to do some homework first on spring rates compared to standard. I know the STi items are 39N/mm (F) and 59N/mm (R). Anyone know the standard spring rates for the Spec B or have any suggestions?
