Why do you need to ask us? Just do it fool. :D

Brembos are overated Alex. My brakes with slotted rotors, decent pads, decent fluid and braided lines held up perfectly on both track outings.

Damn straight they are!

4 and 2's are plenty for even the most avid track day fanatic.

i know that, thats why i was pointing out for the average street car... you've had one track day if you are serious about it you would take the step up as it will get expensive on anything other than brembos. i've done 4 track days with 4p/2p and mine hung in there fine :)

Hey guys. I scored a GC8 22mm front swaybar but I need the right bushes. The GC8 ones are too small. I need the bigger ribbed ones. Anyone got some or do you guys know the part number? I don't trust the whiteline catalogue as its a bit vague. Actually that could be read a lot differently so I may as well say penis.

Can't help you out with that part no. Rob, but Alex should be able to provide you the details! He hooked me up a set of sway links for the front :D

The "wavy" bushes you want should be W0406-22 - the picture just lists them as standard "D" bushes, but my Outback uses the same style in the front and that's the number I used.

2002 Outback - it's gone...

Well thanks guys. I broke the OEM bushed in two and stuffed them into the mount. It worked. Tight as but not failed yet after some big roundabout efforts. Ooh I love the front end grip. I don't need to lift to regain grip.

You need a manual now, plus think of all the bits you could swap over!
