Default Do Widetrack STIs have the same wishbones as a Spec C?

Just checking as I know the Spec C wishbones have increased castor usually, but does this actually apply on widetrack cars or is it a purely non widetrack difference?

Dont quote me on it but I'm pretty sure they first appeared on the MY03 spec c, then rolled out on the MY05 STi's a couple of years later, so yes I think they are the same but different to the MY03/04 Sti's

Cheers that seems to be the general consensus going on a few other threads I've now found.

Well I've been told by a breaker that they are different to widetrack wishbones, very slightly. And the ones I was going to buy have now fallen through so back to square one.

You can flip the OEM alk and add a spacer for more caster...and then swap front camber plate left to right for even more if needed if you have coilovers, I have no under steer on mine
