I would try jap performance parts, probably not the cheapest but most likely to have what you need.

I had the same dilema bout 3mnths ago but on the NSR, i foned loads of places try Rowley Performance Engineers, they're based in Devon but break Scoobies 2 and deliver, very helpful and knowledgeable 0188426615 www.subarutuner.co.uk Or try HDC Subaru Breakers 01422846868. Hope u find wot u need. ;-)

ive managed to get hold of a rear trailing arm

just need a shocker but ive heard they are different versions of the sti shockers.. so i need to match the two up..

so ideally looking for a pair of rears that are not knocking as both of mine were.. so no point me buying just the one..

I needed to replace my rear shocks due to the knocks, Subaru parts were ridiculously expensive (900 for parts I think) I then looked into KYB :
http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.p...912s2730p30403

the above may be what you need, but, I would get a second opinion before buying as the model may be wrong?

In the end I went for some BC's. Fitting wise, it will cost the same to fit 4 BC's as it would to replace the 2 rear shocks . I sold my old springs and got the BC's at group buy price
The handling benefits + price difference all in + the adjust-ability, I had no regrets
