Hi Guys,

Just need some help here, i have a pair of front alloy control arms. Just wondering do i need anything else to bolt it straight on to the bottom of a MY00 GC8 WRX ?

Also, what are the benefits of these stuff other than it being lighter?

Your wise comments are all appreciated.

Cheers
Jian

I have heard that they are also stronger than the standard ones. They also look pretty... :P

Does anyone know if alloy control arms change the castor settings BEFORE any castor mods are made to the rear pivot?

stock steel arms VS stock gc8 alloy arms.

i was under the impression it was only the spec C and 05+sti arms that had extra castor

I have read somewhere it's better handling and improves response. Obviously a reduction in weight will be an advantage as well.

As for the V6 STi ones, i came across the links that Whiteline sells and found that it was only for the normal OE plastic ones found on the stock control arms.

Hence i reckon these set of alloy arms have a different set of links in order to fit it onto a GC8.

Anyone can help me double confirm what i said??

you will need the rosejointed swaybar links, yes they are different. they are about $90 for a pair of new ones from Subaru

Any part number for these... ??

you might be able to find them on japan parts but probably easier getting the VIN off one of the guys here with a GC8 STI and ordering them from a stealership
