whiteline 22mm ARB sorted out the standard spec really well on mine
if your after some nice spec c might be worth giving powerstation a ring as they might have some left overs from the t25s

I have been in a group buy recently, 22mm adjustable ARB, drop links,
Pick it all up Friday, just need to fit it all now
Those that have fitted already have had good things to say

first of all i fitted a 22mm arb and solid drop links which made a nice improvement, then i lowered the car on eibach's which transformed it when going round fast bends, it made the car stay much more level. then i fitted the anti lift kit which improved it even more. booked in for a 4 wheel alignment at powerstation on thursday so hopefully that will make a good improvement as well.

I've got prodrive springs and geometry, whiteline 22mm adjustable anti-roll bars and whiteline drop links. Huge difference over standard. No roll at all, really holds the road well (also got Eagle F1s which helped big time). The car can handle more than my bottle is prepared to take it now!

Ricey,
I have fitted the 22mm Whiteline adjustable rear ARB, the fancy pants alloy droplinks and Eibach springs. These have all been on for a while. I also fitted the front 22mm adjustable front ARB.
Currently the front is set on the 'softest' hole, with the rear on the middle hole. I tried the front on 'hard' and the rear on 'middle' and had massive understeer on the track (on road tyres). Going back to the original settings made a huge difference, and is definately improved over stock.
The only problem you'll have is getting the ARB's chromed for the essential 'bling' factor
I'm currently discussing with Powerstation for a set of AST's, front pillowball mounts and some more Whiteline stuff to try and make the car more 'trackable'.
Rather than trying to get the STi stuff to fit, I think you would be best just biting the bullet for the Whiteline stuff unfortunately!
