    Hey, all. Recently bought a used 2006 WRX Wagon with 67k on the clock. Stock except for STi shifter. No problems as of yet, just great to move from a N/A 3000GT SL to something with a bit more power and AWD[​IMG], especially considering the MN winters. Plan to focus on suspension/brakes to begin with, as there's too much body roll and flex for my taste. Pics soon to follow.

    Welcome to the site. +1 on the pictures


    There are a few 06 - 07 owners on this site that have suspension and brakes done. Feel free to ask questions about getting a good setup for your car. Sway bars are a inexpensive suspension upgrade that can have positive results. I have been running whiteline adjustable sways for over two years now. They are the only ones with the rear support brace for the sway bar. They have held up great and I have had zero issues. Make sure to pick up endlinks to fully enjoy your sways. I grabbed the RalliTek HD End Links. No issues with those either.
