So I found out today Rallitek has CANCELED the rear swaybar for us 2nd gen owners. Thank you guys! Anyways.

What other options are there other then the overpriced standard 22mm Whiteline bars?

Good, those bars and end links su...

Anyway I can get you a whiteline bar, and also Cusco makes a bar but I don't deal with Cusco at this time.

I have had friends running the Rallitek bars for quite some time. And never had an issue with them. But what is the average price of your Whiteline bar Reason?

So the 3rd gen bars will work? And for the WRX bar I have to pound out my spare tire well?

Not sure about the 3rd gen but yes.. The little hump at the bottom of your spare tire well has to be bashed in about an inch or so. Then any GC/GD bar will fit :-D Use the respected endlinks for the bar that you buy.

I'm all about modding my car, but hammering shit that I don't need to doesn't make sense. I rather spend a few bucks more on a specific bar. I how the previous owner cut the hump off completely.

Rears *should* be interchangeable between Gen 1/2 sedan/wagon.

Wagons use 17mm rears and Sedans use 20mm.. Still a good upgrade over 16mm LGT or 18mm L-Outback

From what I have seen only the gen 2 wagons use shorter FSB .. but we don't care about turbo FSB do we :-D

Agreed, the fitting of these bars on the 2nd gen is wrong and the bushings on the endlinks are not what you call "good"... better?

is that because you dont have them to sell for your business? or is it because you've experienced the setup yourself?
