This might belong in swaps and conversions, but

Will STi aluminum control arm fit my BD ? They were used on a GC for 1500 miles

What do you think.

They should fit. Might change the camber slightly, but they'll be a great upgrade. You'll shed some weight off the front.

I was just looking over my funds and :grin: i don't got that. maybe if it's still available in 2 weeks

Just check if the front bushings are 55mm long and not 60mm like on the GD WRX's and STi's.

I THINK the GC turbo models used the same bushings as all the N/A subaru's, but double check on that.

those are for GD's.

How do WRX & STI sedans achieve their wider stance, to fill up the fender bulges? If the control arms are longer that may be a glitch.

Each arm pushes the balljoint out another 10mm outward, giving another 20mm to the front track. This translates to more intial negative camber.

A potentially helpful glitch I see.

Just make sure you get an alignment after. A wider stance will make your toe way off.
