Default Suspension between Versions

Hello,

Can anyone tell me if the Suspesion from a 2002 Bugeye STI will fit on a 2003 blobeye WRX, I know at some point the Blobeyes got a wider track etc etc but the early ones ?

Thanks in advance

I agree. And also believe it or not, newage suspension also fits a classic.

Hi could I just raise this thread again with the same question, would classic coilovers fit a 01-05 Newage directly, or would they if you change the top mounts etc etc.
Sorry if this has been dealt with previously, but I did a search and found nowt
Cheers

AFAIK rear GC and GD top mounts are NOT compatible without re-drilling.

just change the top mounts on the rears to make the shocks fit. Have done it on several cars now.
