The pillow bush arms make such a difference!!
as an aside and if you got hold of them, I think you can run VA sti arms on hatches also, they are the same pillow bush arm but with a different rear bush which has a slightly longer collar which would translate to even more caster. You'd also need to run the rear mounting bolt and the base plate for it...but that VA base plate is strengthened and then in turn would also you to run the subframe bracing that comes standard on them.
I'd love to get a hold of all those VA bits to see is if it actually doable because by eye everything seems to be compatible

Did you get it fitted yet?
And nope i can't find anyone who's fitted later VA bushed arms even in the US! I cross checked the base plates (bought both to check it) and they line up perfect...so I'm convinced it's doable
partsouq even sell the rear bushes seperate so you can retrofit VA bushes into the GV arm

Following good experiance with Amayama on the dash trim, I've done another order.
Pillow ball front arms and flange bolts
Front door weather strips
Plastic trims for rear doors where the window is (these were loose and rattly)
Vinyl sash for outside of front doors (have the usual rust bubbles under these)

So last couple of weeks, coolant temp has been all over the place. Going up to 101, then quickly down to 80 and everywhere in between.
Heater blowing cold.
Still running great though.
Suspected thermostat, took out the RCM one, popped in hot water and sure enough, stuck closed.
Fuji one has gone in and normality is restored.

I think it's important when tracking the car to have some critical info right in front of you.
Also, who doesn't love a few extra gauges.
Worth the money? Only you can decide.
soutcoastflocking for the pod (be prepared to wait) and CanChecked MFD15 Gen2 from wherever you can get them (always assuming you have the data available on canbus),
