They will fit, or should do, it's 04 model on that had different rear drop links. The ones in the link are same as classic and newage up to 03.

I actually thought they were correct too, its just because the ad said not suitable for classic STI???

The ones you have now are aftermarket uprated, just the same as the ones you are looking at buying, so should be a straight swap, the front ones are different only if the car has alloy wishbones. ( Your car should have alloy wishbones ) Try CDF racing they do a full set for around £160.

KLC26 is £97.09 inc. VAT & Delivery, unfortunately mate I've just checked with Whiteline and they don't have any in stock at the moment, as soon as they come in they're straight out the door, they'd come in with the next delivery in two weeks time if ordered today

It's not completely necessary providing you don't have any issues with your current drop links but changing both definitely gives the best results.

Depends on what size roll bar you are using, if very stiff then the original plastic links have been known to break under heavy use. They are the weak link in the set up, the uprated ones should allow the roll bar to work properly.
