replacing 13 year old OM rear control arms on a wrx with adjustable ones, not the hard race stuff but more middle of the road items, would ride compliancy suffer much or would there be little difference?
thanks

you could just replace the bushes in your current arms,with rubber or poly, maybe give the arms a coat of paint to make them look a little better.

I doubt there would be much difference really, you may feel a slight difference with polybushed ones and a little more with pillowball ones but if they are rubber bushes it's gonna feel pretty much like it does now

thanks guys,
I was looking at the one's Matty br developments has currently for sale from breaking that bugeye wagon. I don't want the car any firmer and do I really need that amount of adjustment for what is predominately a road car. Rears run slight toe out and a bit of camber from a single camber bolt, so might leave it at that.
thanks

Sorry to hijack but on a STI wide track is there any point or advantage putting the hardrace or whitline lateral links and trailing arms?

I'm looking for more negative camber approx 2.3 to -2.5 all round, i went to get it set up and one of the lateral link bolts is rusted up and they couldn't release it. upon looking underneath the trailing arms are rusty, my thoughts were to up grade to the Hardrace lateral links and trailing arms, but with it being a UK wide track STI it has adjustable lateral links, hence thinking is there much point? though it will look pretty lol.

Widetracks don't have adjustable lateral arms or links as standard

Ive just had a look a pic underneath and they're not lol, not sure where I've got that from. Cheers

Looks like my next major purchase is the Hardrace kit
