Who sells stuff for a 2001 Impreza?

Most people only have '02+ on their sites. I want to pick up a few things - struts, springs, tophats, engine/trans/pitch/diff mounts, aluminum control arms if possible. Where do YOU get your parts??

TIA.

Engine mounts are the same. Tranny mount is the same. Pitch mount is actually off of 93-96 Imprezas. Diff mounts, not sure, try rallispec.com. The aluminum a-arms = $$$$ for GC's... Not really worth it.

Which springs and struts?

Oh, and try the vendor forums on RS25.com

Thanks for the replies!!! Nice!!

I will check out rs25.com's vendor forums again.

Specifically I want KYB AGX struts (wanted Konis but AGX's will be cheaper/easier) and either Eibach or Prodrive (preferred) springs with around 3/4"-1" drop.

I am coming to grips with the thing about the aluminum control arms, I just wanted them pretty bad. What about an ALK? I will search around for info in this. I also need to get ss brake lines, fluid, and I guess I will spend the money I will save on the arms on new brakes. I really want an LGT setup, but I will have a hard time parting with my stockers and newish S-03's.

Thanks again for the tips - much appreciated!!!

Well the Prodrive P1 springs have an odd drop (a bit too much in the rear) and the Eibachs are too soft of springs with too much of a drop, I'd say just go with Megan Racing coilovers so you can set it up as you like But if you are dead set on AGX's, I got them from here: http://www.cvrmotorsports.com/model.php?mod_id=29

ALK's work good, and once again they are basically the same as the 02+'s (but they don't require the spacers from the kit), however I've ridden in a GC with them vs. mine which I installed the STI ones (which are not really ALK by changing camber, but they have Group-N type bushings) and the ALK gets rather harsh whenever it hits small bumps...

For brakes, you can always just do WRX fronts and H6 rears with higher quality pads if you want more braking force. Either that or the 4-pots of course if you don't want to change your wheels.
