02wrx rear subframe and trailing arms
 
Can anyone tell me if the rear subframe and trailing arms are interchangeable between the years?

Mine are getting a bit corroded and was thinking of getting some secondhand bits to clean up maybe powdercoat and get a garage to swap over.

Thanks guys.

Not sure on the interchangability between models, but later models come with a boxier type arms than the bugeye which has cylindrical shape.

Guessing the subframes are the same, aslong as the trailing arms are 410mm from centre point to centre point i would have thought they're fine.

Wagon's have shorter arms at 400mm and widetrack will be to wide.

Doing the same as you, but i was sent one arm that was to short at 400mm.

Thanks, I'll bear in mind the measurements although now tempted to just get the hardrace kit as it comes ready bushed and painted:D.

Am I right in saying there are 2 major bits to look at, the cradle for the diff and then the actual subframe underneath? Anybody know if earlier later ones will fit for certain?
