Product Description

The TEIN Street Basis Z Coilover Kit (Part No. GSS52-81SS2) is a ride-height adjustable suspension upgrade engineered for Subaru Legacy models from 2003 through 2009, including AWD variants such as Legacy GT and 2.0GT Spec B in both sedan and wagon configurations. As part of TEIN's entry-level coilover range, the Street Basis Z system offers a simple, effective way to lower your vehicle's stance while improving cornering response and overall road feel compared to stock suspension.

Featuring a twin-tube damper design with balanced spring rates and corrosion-resistant components, these coilovers focus on daily comfort and dependable performance. Ride height is easily adjusted via ZT-coated threaded spring seats, and the kit reuses OEM upper mounts for straightforward installation. While damping is non-adjustable, this coilover set delivers a refined balance between ride quality and handling for drivers who want enhanced stance and grip without sacrificing everyday usability.
