Can the experts in here please confirm if the below parts will fit my car, may sound daft but they seem to look visually different. I’m more inclined to go with whiteline as they are more represented in the Subaru world from my limited experience. But Hardrace seem to give more bang for buck.
I have a 2004 Impreza WRX STI Type UK.
As you can see my current control arms have seen much better days, there’s rust just falling off when touching them.
Or if anyone has any other suggestions I’m all ears.
top hardrace should fit but not sure with those bracket and drop links
same for whiteline but You need to paint them as they will rust
for example on some imprezas sti pink with bracket need other sway bar
mine for widetrack are 6941 pillowball non adjustable ones,no bracket same like oem

So when I went to have the Rear Anti Roll bar fitted…The garage said that the Drop Links I supplied didn’t fit (C shaped Droplinks)! The control arm on the car had to have the normal links fitted, See picture Highlighted below, That’s what’s currently on the car.
Please can anyone give me a definitive answer. I’m stressing rn.
think oem c shape are 10cm should fit unless You changed struts or springs thats why I use adjustable ones-see You are on coilovers thats why best to use adjustable ones-superpro.
I would buy ones with no additional bracket to avoid a mess with sway bar etc.
Those brackets fits on main bolt on a hub than You bolt drop link to it and to sway bar but no one will tell You all will be fine 100%.
Best to buy new bolts from ICP You will need them.
For example i bought heavy duty stout mounts but my sway bar has a collars where bushes landed and need to use new oem mounts but found an issue when I tried to swap them.

Hi, they are correct. I have a pre wide track 03 Sti that I think was the last Sti to use the C shaped rear drop links. You need the link ball type that originally came with your car like you circled on the image.
