Subaru Impreza WRX STi – BC Racing Coilovers Upgrade at Whifbitz

We recently had this stunning Subaru Impreza WRX STi in the Whifbitz workshop for a suspension refresh and handling upgrade.

The car arrived running a set of worn-out Tein coilovers, which had seen better days. To restore performance and improve ride quality, we replaced them with a brand new set of BC Racing BR Series coilovers – a fantastic all-round suspension setup for fast road and track use.

Why BC Racing BR Series?

The BC Racing BR Series coilovers are a popular choice for Impreza owners thanks to:

  • 30 levels of damping adjustment
  • Height adjustment independent of spring preload
  • Monotube damper design for improved performance
  • Excellent balance between comfort and handling

The result is sharper turn-in, improved body control, and a much more planted feel on the road.

20mm Direnza Wheel Spacers Installed

To further enhance the car’s stance and track width, we also fitted 20mm Direnza wheel spacers.

These help:

  • Improve overall handling stability
  • Create a more aggressive, flush fitment
  • Maximise the visual impact of the STi’s wheels

Precision Wheel Alignment

After fitting the new suspension and spacers, we carried out a full wheel alignment to ensure everything was set up correctly.

Correct alignment is essential after suspension work to:

  • Ensure even tyre wear
  • Optimise handling performance

The STi left the workshop sitting perfectly and driving exactly as it should.
