I could be wrong here, but was under the impression that the STi V5/6 top mount, was exactly the same as a UK Turbo 99-00/RB5 top mount - apart from being silver in colour instead of black.
Oh, and it has STi on it!

I got a newage WRX tmic for my RB5.
It is considerably bigger than the standard one and looks far better.
I also added photos and a 'how to guide' in this section a couple of weeks ago.
I got the tmic for £20 off Ebay.

well that's something I can't answer. It is clearly bigger (should give cooler temps) and looks far better without the bent fins so I am happy with it.
