Intrax Maybe next July.

 

I ordered KYB GR2 struts. They will arrive any day.

 

I did a search but did not find much. Can we cut off 1/3 of a coil???

You can IF: the spring is not tapered and/or otherwise not going to index into it's mounting by cutting it down.

 

I have heated a spring in the past to good effect (with a torch, heating only one coil).

 

Is lowering a real good idea? I know my stock height Legacy Sport sedan is quite low enough for me (and doesn't drag, I'm sure it would 2" lower).

You could go with a coilover setup. Most of the ones for Subaru's are universal, but its probably not the best way to go.

 

And I wouldn't heat the springs, it will effecively make them loose their spring rates, thus riding like crap
