Whiteline Swaybars and Endlinks........ and an alignment!

Post by livestrong14 »

I have done many suspension mods to my car over the last few months. After installing each part, I keep telling myself that it has been my favorite mod. Started off with strut bars, then moved on to fender bracing, underbody bracing, etc. I have finally found the final ingredient to making our cars handle (this sound cheesy) like a dream. There is no other way to explain it. There is no similarity in terms of body roll, and steering response with my newly installed Whiteline Endlinks F&R as well as a 22mm front swaybar and 20/24mm ADJ. rear swaybar.

These are my favorite mods to date. If you feel you are ready to take your car to the top in terms of suspension, I beleive these would be considered exactly that.

I've driven many STi's and WRX's with suspension mods. This is the mod that puts us right back up there with them. Can't wait to see the results out at the auto-x course, and upcoming PIR track days.

I'm really interested in seeing these mods if you have time to take pictures. I'm particularly interested in how the underbody bracing works.

I too run the whiteline 22mm front swaybar and 20/24mm rear swaybar with endlinks.

Consider buying adjustable rear control arms. They allow you to dial in tons of toe in either direction and even adjust the camber!

The fender bracing parts are for impreza or? I've installed them on S13's before and they are by far the most drastic improvement of all.

The fender braces were my design just for sport sedans and touring wagons. They bolt in. I am looking at getting more sets made soon.

Do you think the Impreza units will fit? No reason to reinvent the wheel if so.

I believe there are some STI or SPT fender braces, are there not?
