not to be an ass....but i'm 100% sure when I bought those same engine mounts they were called grp N STi engine mounts. Assumingly the same engine mounts on an Sti? someone fill me in.

but what i'm saying is....i've only seen them for sale as an upgrade to rs/wrx mounts. How many ppl have STi's and then bought STi engine mounts? It seems kinda weird to think that if you own an STi you'd upgrade a part with something that has the same name.

Nope, not the same.

"Subaru released pictures of and info on its new Impreza WRX STI spec C, which the company will submit for FIA rally (Group N) homologation. Within Group N, or FIA’s production-car class, a car’s engine cannot be moved and the suspension and brakes must be stock."

So "Group N" or "Sti Group N" parts are factory performance parts added to the rally cars (which are already Wrx Sti Spec C). Which is why they are called "Sti Group N" or "Group N" parts. That is not the same as an "Sti" part.

Think of it along the American lines of Mustang, Mustang Gt, Mustang Cobra. That would be equate to Wrx, Wrx Sti, Sti Group N. Make sense?

Fyi here's a list of the group n parts:
