24mm rear swaybars are for fancy people with their purses full of money driving their fancy STi's...........us commoners with WRX's stick to what the kind folks at Subaru provided us with.

knowing me i will probably get some of this done & then sell it..

when i dont have a toy to work on i go crazy & when i do have one i cant find any time to work on it..
I believe you would be better off getting a new boot rather then welding the holes up as if the wrong person welds them u may be faced with more warps then you would hope for. But you no doubt already know that

yeah i know about the welding issue - theres 6 decent sized holes to fill so another boot is the best option.
cheers

We'll see if you can keep pace with the white whale at Collie sweetness! Might even keep the stock swaybars to give you a chance......

Much <3 Dave


P.S. On a serious note, if you have the cash and inclination, upgrade the swayybars NWrumbler - it helps with cornering immensley.

was thinking of pricing one up but going to spend $ on go instead of show.

guessing 5 or 600 plus paint for a boot?

Bout 300 to paint and I think the boot lids are only a few hundred so allow 600 for the lot.
