does anyone know an online shop i can search for oe parts by part number in the uk.

if import car parts search function worked properly it would be great

 

try opposed forces mate. If you pm the numbers you require I can price and order if you need them.

 

hat would be great , i use opposed forces to get the part numbers but when i try searching for them no luck, most good sites seem to be in america .

right now im looking for the bumper support beam part no 57760FA101 although it only goes upto 1998 nothing for upto 2000 on opposed forces.

also the diagram does look different


other things im looking for are different bolts and clips but i'll wait and order them all at the same time

 

found this http://www.neoriginal.ru/cat/subaru/.../B_1_590_13_B2


the part im looking for is 57711 in the diagram
its in a different language and it doesnt list for wrx or sti , would it be the one at the bottom rx,gt etc part no 57760FA680

and anyone know what ks is, ive seen parts listed as either exc ks or for ks

 

Have you phoned ICP?
The GT is the same as UK spec on the opposed-forces site.
The part was first introduced in in 1998 should would not change as that is the last change before the Newage Impreza came in.

thanks for your help,the picture in the illustration isnt exactly like the part the support beam i have has another bit at right angles down the way to the bracket sticking out in the illustration.

found a picture of it

do you think it will be the right part just the illustration isnt exact

 

What car and model?

 

my 2000 sti version6

 

57760FA680 Beam front bumper turbo. £67.23 +vat

 

There is no UK site that provides this. However there is in Germany:

I have used them twice and they are reliable.

They are also 10% cheaper then UK parts from dealers.

You do need to pay postage but no import duty or tax as it's EU.

Not worth the effort for a single bolt. But for lots of bits they are great.

 

rob84 works for Subaru.
But calling a UK dealer is sooo easy if you pick up a phone. Surprisingly they can be helpful and cheaper than breakers for OE new parts.

 

that is looking like the easiest option , not sure how it will go with my car being a classic sti so no uk model to refer to . ill see how it goes . it would have been good if i could go to a site find the part i need and order it .

speaking to a subaru dealer over the phone trying to explain what parts i need , doesnt seem that easy .

i could go into one but then the nearest one is about 20miles away and only open when im working

 

part 6 is the support beam but mine looks like this

**** picture but you can see how different it is

 

Depending which dealer you call, you give them your import chassis number and they will get the part number that's correct for your car.

I'll upload a picture off my JDM epc

 

if that is the right part,would i have to pick it up from a dealer, thanks for your help, how can i get a jdm epc

 

just realised theres a better picture allready, further up the thread

 

That's the partnumber from the above post, I don't think its right personally.
You will struggle to get it. Leave it with me I'll see what I can dig up, Thought I had it sorted but appears not as my epc wont go back far enough

 

appreciate your help .

starting to wonder how good hammerite is

 

the bracket that hangs down on my actual support bar is where bolt 14 in the diagram goes into so maybe just a bad diagram. also i cant see any reason why a uk turbo would have a different bar

i might have to buy it to find out , is it easy enough to return wrongly ordered parts

 

VPhoned ipc, the bar he can supply doesn't have the part that comes downward , he says it should do the same job though , question is what does bolt 14 in the illustration go into , how is the bottom of the bumper fixed , stuck for what to do now .

Without that bracket the bumper will only be held on by one bolt behind reg plate and a row of plastic clips along the top

Icp said I won't find the jap spec one within the UK , thought that was the point of import car parts

 

The lower bolts on the bumper should locate in the front beam that runs across the front of the car (part of the chassis) it will no doubt be very rusty.


It may be that some cars locate into the support beam instead hence the additional lower parts. Either way it's no biggy as those two lower bolts don't do much and you could easily knock up a bracket. I would just get the uk one and I'm sure it will be fine.

 

Found the right part number 57760FA400 just need to see if I can get it in the UK
