RCE is the best..Man if I had an 05 I'd help ya out. I have an extra 04 strut like Myles, but that is of no use to you.

I have been there at one point myself. The good thing is that when life sucks, it is only temporary!

Good luck man.

hahaha...hey if you have one I'll pay for it if you want. Just my budget is kind of limited...specially after xmas.


Yeah. You saw that website I posted. Does it look like a reliable site from where I can get that knuckle?

I've read alot about RCE at work...while not working ...so I'm looking forward for them!

I got home and she looked so sad not being driven today! haha

2 sets remaining,...if you want these you might want to call in and get them ASAP. We sold 4 sets each day last week.

So...bye bye Cobb Stage 1 for now...

So, now I'm on the market for some new shocks and I might as well get some springs too.

Any recommendations??

And also. Where the hell do I get a steering knuckle from??



: (

well misery likes it's own company. I hit a curb chirstmas eve in my STi - limited. I scratched my lip and bumper. I bent the front right rim and curbed the rear right rim as well. The new rims are on the way from japan but genuinesubaruparts.com told me it is atleast a month for the rims. So im waiting on those then I got to bring it for an alignment and hope for the best.

to the OP

what happened to your original shocks?? bend the shaft to the shock or what??

if the bottom section is still good, where it mounts to the hub, I'd be interested in buying it/them from you. that may help offset other costs..
