ah-----didnt see all the feedback thanks dj......yea i did them on my02 and it was way harder although i didnt have ol' dj but anywho i have to say it feels hella different way stiffer steering response is nice....i also have a whiteline rear just no bushings for it........overalll best mod for $29.50 and really if you loosen teh steering column its a way easier task......or a screwdriver to pry but mark you should install them........great and easy mod specially you bein at the shop ten minutes with air tools and a lift.

For anyone that owns a pre 05 car and cares about handling, this is a key mod and especially for the price. On the 05/06 it still makes a noticeable difference, but not as critial.

Also, since someone mentioned the cross member lock, I have talked to several people about this that say it is really only noticeable after you have replaced all the rear links. Before that, the link bushings move to much to notice the smaller difference the cross member lock does. However, the cross member lock is just so cheap and easy.

Actually faded, I think it's about 10x easier to install on an 05+ Sti from what I've seen.

They were pretty easy on mine, just more expensive because they come with a tool of sorts
