I swapped my STi trunk for a wingless trunk this weekend (did it by myself, it was kind of a pain but do-able). As most of you know, STi torsion bars + wingless trunk = catapult. I tried taking one bar out hoping that would work, but the trunk wouldn't stay open. At the moment, I have the inside trunk release cancelled and I have to open the trunk carefully with the key.

Does anyone have a hook up for a salvage yard or somewhere that I can get a set of torsion bars cheap? I'm assuming the wingless bars should be easy to get as they should be the same for any Impreza without a spoiler (?). Thanks.

 

Got this info from Iclub. These are the Subaru part numbers for the trunk tension rods from a 2005 WRX. BTW where did you find a wingless trunk, ive been looking for one.
