Default Rear Subframe

Hi all,

My Rear Sub frame is a little worse for wear. I intend to begin restoring or replacing the sub frame, arms, arb, droplinks etc

Would using something such as this be a good place to start? Or would I be better off contacting the likes of Matty B?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Imp...3D122358761241

Also would I encounter fitment issues when using my current diff etc with the above assembly? My car is a 99 Uk turbo.

Thanks in advance for any info

probably better getting them from Matty at pole position as he'll only sell decent parts, I've bought 3 subframes for other people from him and every one was mint

Just to add, the new age cars up to 05 will have compatible parts, apart from shafts and diff on the sti

I've just ordered a new front and rear subframe along with wishbones and a load if whiteline and hardrace stuff for a full restoration of the Greenwagon

Think the rear subframe was about £260

Got my subframe from Matt too. Thought I'd swap it out when I fit all the hardrace kit, bushes etc and clean up the underside.
