Hi All,
Friend of mine who just replace another upgraded front swaybar on his 02 WRX. He just sell me his OEM swaybar for very low price and I just wanna know will it fits to a 92 Legacy turbo with GC8 Aluminum front lower control arm and GC8 STi front swaybar link?

Thanks for all reply!

Is his 02 WRX a sedan or wagon?

wrx is 20mm which is 53% stiffer than the stock 18mm bar. The Impreza sedan bar is wider than your bar but I think the endlink mounting points on those control arms are a bit farther out.

Hi Jamal, is that mean it will not fits to a 92 turbo sedan?
I needs to know its fits or not before I buy it!

Thanks for more info!

Will it fit directly? No.

Will it fit with GC control arms? Not sure. I dunno if the swaybar mounts differently to the control arms, or if the track is the same as Jamal said, or if GC control arms will fit your car without changing the front bushing.

You can probably make it to fit, but I haven't put one on myself, so use that info at your own risk.

I just checked and the GC control arms are the same as ours.

So the swaybar will NOT mount to the GC control arms.

If you want a GD swaybar to fit, you will have to use GD control arms, and you'll have to swap the front bushing in the GD control arms to the GC ones.

Or leave the GD control arms alone and swap to a GD crossmember.

My personal advice, find a swaybar off a BC/BJ Legacy with air ride, they had 19mm front swaybars, as opposed to all the others that had 18mm front swaybars.

WRX wagons have 20mm front swaybars I think. They should fit fine.
