Question Using turbo X-member & WRX front swaybar

Anybody know if I can use the 91-94 Legacy or WRX cross member and front swaybar on a NA 2.5RS ?? (1999). Will I have any interference with my stock headers or any other fitments? I want to EJ20 swap eventually and was wondering if I can put these parts on my car for the time being until I get the motor. Thanx for input.

I know that you have to shave the control arms if you use a wrx Xmember, but the legacy one is supposed to fit right in. I don't know if you can run the stuck motor in those xmembers.

yes you can use you n/a exhaust with a legacy turbo or wrx xmember.....
n/a exhaust will clear the turbo xmember but the up pipe wont clear the n/a crossmember you have to put shims between the control arms and xmember if you use a wrx one but a legacy xmember will bolt right up no problems
