well, i just ordered some new struts for my 02 wrx sedan and will be putting them on soon. here the ? i was thinking of doing new endlinks and sway bar bushings since the car will be up in the air-what is a good brand that isnt too expensive? ebay has some hard race end links and bushings-any one used these? they look plastic-only costs $104 for both front and rear end links-bushings are $20 does that seem too cheap? let me know, that would be great!
whiteline is a good one for bushings, but there's a ton of other ones out there as well. endlinks...here's a few examples. cobb, perrin, whiteline. I like the cobb stuff, but it's expensive. you might be able to snatch something up somewhat cheap if you search Nasioc oh...and I've never seen any ebay knock offs on any cars I've worked on....but my gut says to stay clear of that stuff.
Katboy or Whiteline HD endlinks are the way to go unless it will only be a race car, then go for some with spherical ball joint endlinks. For bushings whiteline, superpro, and Subaru Grp. N are the ones I would trust.
for a good set of cheap-ish endlinks, I'd suggest Group-A solids. Touge-Tuning sells them. They've worked great for me.
I highly recommend the Kartboy endlinks. Cheap ($180 for front and rears), and a good solid design. I'm kind of confused by your first post, are you doing a swaybar as well?
these all seem good, now where can i get them? any where near here? im guessing there pretty expensive too right. let me know
Guess the Kartboy front and rears are now $200. http://www.oakos.com/Merchant2/merc...55&Product_Code=KB-017COMBO&Category_Code=110
MAPerformance can get you the Kartboy endlinks in 3-4 days. I have them on all four corners on my car. I'm not sure what you drive but if you drive a wagon or an older style Impreza/Legacy you probably need to get the Wagon/GC set. The fronts are different bushings because the endlink/control arm connection is MUCH narrower on the GC and/or wagons than on the WRX Sedans. Narrow enough that I was unable to force the sedan bushing into the gap. Energy Suspension and Whiteline both make various bushings for your swaybar. I went with Whiteline. You can also get these from MAP. Good luck.
I rock the kartboy rear endlinks and Perrin rear sway bar with 22 mm adjustable, set at 23mm. I like it, it helped out a bit but havent autocrossed with it yet.
