Default Will this ARB fit my car?

Will a standard rear anti-roll bar from a 2005 STi Spec C fit my 2003 (Blobeye) WAGON

And more to the point will it be worth it, is it an upgrade on my standard one?

THANX in advance - Darren

Probably not, the wagon is a narrow track vehicle, and in 2005 the STI went to a wider track/bigger wheel bearing set-up...

So is this only gonna fit Hawkeye WRX and STis then yes? Or would it fit Blobeye STis?

As it's off a Spec C is this gonna be an upgrade for the standard STi or just a replacement part?

Looks like I'm gonna have to sell this on.............

You'd need a look at a Hawk WRX as they may use the same lateral arms as the STI and derivatives, or they may use the same ones as earlier STi's & WRX's....

Look for short straight drop links...

HTH

P.S. And I may be wrong...

Cheers Dunx, this is defo not gonna fit mine as I've been told elsewhere, Saloons have 20mm wider track than Wagons and this does sound about right as I'm sure I read that somewhere b4. (Explain why they have flared rear arches and wagons don't)

So gotta find out which models this fits, so I can sell it on to right model and use cash towards another ARB or other goodies.

Mine does have the chunkier reverse C droplinks on already from previous owner
