FEAL Suspension 442 Coilovers w/ Radial Bearing Upgrade and Swift Springs 2005-2007 STI | Enhanced Handling Precision | Adjustable Coilover Suspension
Overview
The FEAL Suspension 442 Coilovers with Radial Bearing Upgrade and Swift Springs are a comprehensive suspension solution designed specifically for the 2005-2007 Subaru WRX STI. This coilover kit combines FEAL’s renowned damping technology with a radial bearing upgrade to improve steering response and suspension articulation. Paired with Swift Springs, known for their consistent spring rates and durability, this setup is ideal for enthusiasts seeking a significant handling upgrade without sacrificing daily drivability.
FEAL Suspension approaches coilover design with a focus on balance and precision. The 442 series features a monotube damper design that provides consistent damping performance under aggressive driving conditions. The radial bearing upgrade enhances the front strut assembly by reducing friction and improving steering feedback, a critical factor for the demanding dynamics of the STI chassis. Swift Springs complement this setup by offering progressive rates that maintain ride quality while improving cornering stability.
For Subaru WRX STI owners, this coilover kit delivers a transformative handling experience. The adjustability allows fine-tuning of ride height and damping to suit street, track, or mixed use. The radial bearing upgrade ensures sharper turn-in and better control during high-speed maneuvers, while the Swift Springs maintain composure over uneven surfaces. This combination preserves the STI’s signature all-wheel-drive confidence while elevating chassis responsiveness and driver engagement.
Features & Specifications
2 Way Adjustable fronts and rears with remote reservoirs. Separate damping adjustability for Rebound and Compression. Rebound adjustability does not change compression force so that you can fine tune the roll and rate of weight transfer. The huge range of compression adjustability is independent of rebound force. The compression adjustability will allow you to adjust for more or less traction and more or less suspension movement on the compression stroke.
