SI01 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 What do you guys run? I'm trying to find something that costs a bit less than something like a Cusco piece, but I'm not having much luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zues Marine Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 you can get the 93-01 impreza front bars (they're like $15) and the 02-03 WRX one for the rear (also like $15) thats what i have, nice and easy installs, especially in the wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dont know if a $20 ebay strut bar would even be worth getting. How do you like your setup? Whats GC front and GD rear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI01 Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 I need the back all the time so I won't be doing the rear anyway. But thanks for the info, I didn't realize it was a GC front. I already have some of those from the 4 GCs I've owned over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmwpride Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 So a wrx front and rear strut bar from ebay will fit my gt sedan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 technically you can mash in a wrx front, but the modification is a pain compared to MY93-01 impreza, which bolts right up. 02-03 wrx will fit the rear no modification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmwpride Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 so if i get a impreza front and a wrx rear im set.. LOl cause i have a budy that has one of each i might just grab from him if thats the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaz98gt Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 that's a bummer...i'd get rid of it and find one that matches up perfectly. there's definitely something not right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reuben Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 That looks just like my rear brace... it should fit! Ah, yes, now i remember. I had to modify mine to work, i had the same problem. The bolt holes in the bar itself, i just drilled out and made them wider. So the bolt holes resemble an oval instead. I also painted it black. http://i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa208/Pilot_Reuben/strutbrace.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
