Ohlins Road & Track Coilovers – 2015-2021 Subaru WRX / 2008-2021 STI

Description:

Ohlins Road & Track Coilovers - 2015-2021 Subaru WRX (VA) / 2008-2021 Subaru STI

The Community Standard for WRX and STI Suspension
The Ohlins Road & Track Coilovers for the VA Subaru WRX and the broad STI generation spanning 2008-2021 are among the most popular and proven suspension upgrades in the Subaru enthusiast community. These platforms -- the VA WRX, the GR STI, and the VA STI -- cover over a decade of Subaru's most capable performance AWD cars, and the Ohlins Road & Track system has been a go-to recommendation for track day drivers, autocross competitors, and performance road car builders throughout that period.

DETAILS

• Patented Dual Flow Valve (DFV) technology for consistent damping in both compression and rebound
• Monotube damper architecture for improved response and heat dissipation
• Height adjustable via strut body, not spring perch, for more precise ride height tuning
• 20+ click adjustable damping range for road and track configurations
• Inverted front strut design for reduced unsprung weight and improved steering feel
• Aluminum shock bodies for lightweight construction and improved cooling
• Rebuildable and serviceable by Ohlins dealers
• ISO 9227 corrosion salt spray tested
• Compatible with OEM top mounts
• Dustcovers and spring preload adjuster included
• All necessary hardware and ride height adjustment tool included
• Two-year warranty

DFV Technology and the Subaru AWD System
Subaru's Symmetrical AWD system distributes power to all four wheels constantly, which means the suspension at each corner is always managing both braking and traction loads. Ohlins' Dual Flow Valve ensures each damper responds consistently in both compression and rebound, so the platform maintains predictable grip at all four corners. That consistency matters most under the hard cornering and corner-exit acceleration loads of track driving, where a less capable damper allows the AWD system to hunt for grip rather than find it reliably. Front top hats with camber adjustment allow further chassis optimization, and the inverted front strut design reduces unsprung mass for sharper steering response.

Setup Flexibility for Road and Track
Strut body ride height adjustment keeps the suspension geometry intact across the full lowering range. The 20+ click damping adjuster covers everything from a comfortable daily setting to a firm track configuration. Front top hats are camber adjustable on these applications, which is particularly useful for STI owners running the car at time attack events or track days where alignment optimization matters. All hardware, dustcovers, and a ride height adjustment tool are included for a complete installation.

An Investment That Lasts as Long as the Build
The aluminum shock bodies reduce weight and manage operating temperature during sustained performance use. The rebuildable design allows the system to be serviced through the Ohlins dealer network rather than replaced outright -- particularly valuable for a platform that Subaru owners tend to maintain and develop over many years. The two-year warranty covers the system from installation, and the quality of the components reflects Ohlins' motorsport pedigree.

Why Choose Ohlins

Ohlins has been engineering suspension systems for motorsport at the highest levels since 1976, supplying teams in MotoGP, Formula 1, and World Rally Championship. That racing heritage is not just marketing -- it is reflected in the materials, tolerances, and engineering decisions that go into every Road & Track unit. The DFV technology, the rebuildable monotube architecture, and the corrosion testing standards are all direct products of Ohlins' competition experience applied to street and track use. When you put Ohlins under your car, you are getting a product validated under conditions far more demanding than anything most owners will ever encounter.

The RallySport Take

The VA WRX and the STI in its various forms are some of the most enduring performance cars in the enthusiast community, and the Ohlins Road & Track system has been one of the most consistently recommended suspension upgrades for them for good reason. DFV technology, camber-adjustable front hats, and 20+ click adjustability give you a real performance suspension rather than a coilover that just lowers the car. If you are running your WRX or STI at track days, building a dedicated time attack car, or just want the best available suspension for a car you drive hard, this is what we would put on it.
