^^Yea I've seen a couple of those as well. Were those setups modified to your knowledge, or appeared stock?

I'm wondering if maybe that the strut/spring was changed for another one? (STi perhaps?)

They appeared stock. That had me surprised cause mine came with plenty ground clearance.

today was trying to check if it is possible to increase my clearance,however with this shocks and springs...which appear to be from STI its impossible.
The springs are definitely not cut.
Front ones are with less coils then rear ones.

^^Maybe you should try to compare those to OE Forester struts/springs and see how the overall height compares. I'm betting there's at least a 1" difference :D

On another note, the newbies on NASIOC should really see this....PROOF that KYB (and not Boge) makes OE struts! :D :D :D

you probably could compare in some store ..but down here I think you can compare only the height of two foresters with different suspension....
