Does anyone know about fitting STI aluminum front control arms onto the wrx. I bent one pretty bad hitting a curb. Subaruwrxparts.com and the dealership have them but they say 04+ WRX on some sites, 02+WRX/STI on some. Been cruising around NASIOC but no one has a straight answer. If the mounting points/sizes are the same, wouldn't it just widen your track and give more caster?
I think the STI ones require a different front sway bar so you might need that plus endlinks in addition to the new control arms. Like I said earlier on the phone, I'm not really sure about what fits between sedans, I've always been more concerned with what doesnt fit on the wagons.
Have you tried contacting SS or WJM. If anyone would know on our site, I would think it would be them.
as far as i know they will fit with out modification but bobby may be right, you may need a new sway bar.
ok, so by different endlinks, you mean ones that are meant to go on an 04 STI? and that will still hook up to my stock sway bar? Gonna call up SS tomorrow i guess, no one else at SoG knew yesterday when i called.
Here follow this thread: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1167720 It's pretty much the same on a wrx as on a gc. You'll also need the part numbers from the thread to fit the control arms.
