Well, to take it a bit back off topic, the 08+ get some pretty nasty oversteer, so I am looking towards getting a swaybar. Questions. How much will that positively affect my car, I am assuming Subaru offers an aftermarkey swaybar, how much will it cost, what are the negatives, if I go offroad, how will it affect it, what additional parts should/do I need to get with it, and do I really need it for a daily driver? And yes, I do drive my car on the hard side, if that makes a difference. Any and all input welcome.

Aftermarket swaybars for our cars will definately be worth it. Once you have it you'll fall in love. Look at perrin or whiteline. A good idea to buy some new endlinks while you're at it.

 

Nah, this is the kind of scoop I want...



MAXIMUM TROLLING!!!

 

If you get one I'll buy your stock rear sway bar and endlinks since the 2.5i don't have one....

 

Subaru doesn't have aftermarket sways for our cars, but you can get, whiteline, perrin, eibach etc. But make sure you get endlinks otherwise they aren't as effective. Well I did my whole suspension all at once so I put on BC coilovers 8k/8k and got a strut bar, and 25mm front and 22mm rear sways w/endlinks and now I have a touch of oversteer which is what I was shooting for. Really I am not exactly sure on what is a good rally setup but the way I went seems to be common with many avid 08+ track goers if that counts for anything. As for effect, I can't tell you since I did everything at once, but in the end it is a new feel, and I love it

Yeah I feel the same, I like it better than previous years, it flows much better. Well exactly you work with what you got well put! Oh and btw I got my 11' STi wing I am putting on my 08 WRX.

 

I have endlinks and bushings for sale if you want them. https://www.i-club.com/forums/norcal-classifieds-96/fs-kartboy-extra-long-exhaust-hangers-08-rear-endlinks-08-rsb-bushings-223446/

 

I like it a lot. Much better gas mileage and the 11s have BT including BT audio. I just need to get some stock wrx wheels for the summer since my stock ones are going wear like crazy.

 

So I'll just need the sway bar? And I doubt it would void my warranty since I'll just be adding a stock part right?

 

You'll still need a sway bar, a couple other bolts and nuts and two brackets. I have a list of the rest of the parts. I just happen to have these sticking around because I got everything I needed excluding the bar itself and when I got the bar it had endlinks and bushings still attached to it. It shouldn't affect your warranty, I have been to the dealership a couple of times since I installed it and they have never said anything.

 

No it won't void warranty, if you want you can even have them install it. I know they do sell it and stock it in their parts department.

 

I uhmm, oops

 

I have my front and rear sway bars that have been sitting in my garage for months now. PM me, I'd be glad to sell them both or just the rear if you want.

 

Hahaha caught!

Hey robie, you may want to keep those sways just in case for warranty work, I have read and heard from many who want to take in their car for warranty work regarding suspension but can't because they aftermarket sways. Just something to keep in mind so if you even do take it in for warranty work or if there is an off chance you may need it in the future you won't have to scramble around.

 

I just picked up my 2011 Impreza 2.5i DGM wagon/hatchback on Halloween day.

 

There are so many of you 2.5i's out there.
