I honestly think it wasn't tightened enough. It's pretty rare for a camber bolt to let loose like that.

I've had mine slip a TIIIINY bit. Things come out of alinement and you go get realigned. It's normal. But I've never had an issue like that where they just completely let go. And I used to run plates and bolts like you are. Never had an issue.

Yeah 02-07 WRX Sedan and wagon are all the same. Just make sure it's not an STI bar and you're good to go. If you're trying to save a buck used ones are all over the place for $100 or less.

Right away. No.

But I would make plans to get them ASAP. You'll notice the difference and the stock ones will probably snap eventually anyways. The fronts can come later but the rears will be a major week point for you if you're doing a larger rear bar.

Bushings can be picked up anywhere. Just make sure the price reflects the cost of them...

says they come with energy suspension bushings. and that the bar was chipping so he sanded it and primed it. wheres the best place to get endlinks cheap(ish)

They don't come up used very often but you can try and get some that way. Or call up one of the local vendors.

I think my local quote was around $138 for whiteline HD's. I have a quote from Nasioc for $110 I think.

Kartboy is your best bang for your buck.

I finished all 4 stages awhile back. That show is one of my favorites of all time. Stage 4 being the best one out of the bunch.
