    I have no plans, I will help, I want to get these soon. I am going to get the steering rack bushings when I get my front and rear sway bars.

    I've got a set sitting in my garage that I had planned on installing, but I took a look under the car and one of the brackets on the steering rack looks different than what the one on my 02 WRX looked like. I'm not sure if they'll fit the 05 WRX or not, I didn't try it. I'm gonna take a better look when I install my GrpN motor mounts tomorrow.

    Weapon, did you get yours in? I'm off Tue, Wed, and Thurs if you still need a hand.

    I work an odd schedule so my off days change every week. Let me know when you're planning on installing them, I'll come give you a hand if I can. I'm about to go give mine a shot. Wish me luck! :)

    So much for that. The driver's side bushing appears to be different on the 05's. The passenger side looks the same. I was under the impression that the 05 STi was the only one that got changes to the steering rack. Am I correct or am I just not looking hard enough?

    $25, never opened. Looked under the car, swore a bunch, put the package back on the shelf. I'm right smack in the middle of Gwinnett so I can meet you wherever. I'll be working this weekend but I don't go in till around 2:00. Let me know!
