Whats everyone's thoughts on here about buying genuine OE parts, is it worth paying 3x as much for the parts? I'm needing the buy track rod ends & drop links, is the genuine Subaru parts really worth triple the cost?

For things like that, aftermarket ( not cheap copies tho ) are fine

I usually use aftermarket parts on the other cars I've had, but the impreza is a bit more performance oriented so i thought I'd try to use more genuine parts than usual, any brands in particular you would stay away from or ones you think are best? I've heard good things about MOOG

In some cases, upgrade parts (superpro, whiteline, cusco etc) are not much more than original subaru.
Especially if you call AS performance.

+1 for Import car parts. Great place to get oem quality parts at very keen prices. Very knowledgeable guys too.

Ok for standard f&r droplinks for £66 as won't upgrade them until I decide if I'm doing toolbars. If I do I'll get the full whiteline set
