Haha me too. I can't believe your rear bumper cracked so bad. Mine does have some large cracks in it, but I've tried to keep up with patching them with Goop. I plan to line the inside of the Impreza with some combination of Goop, lexan, fiber tape, and Gorilla tape. However, I don't want to end up doubling the weight of the body. I'm going to run the Fiesta body until it's barely recognizable

I can't believe how much abuse this thing can take. I've flipped, rolled, smashed, and bashed it so much and the the only damaged part is a dog bone, other than the body and tires.

Replacement is on the right. Definitely thicker.


This car has a lot of grip on the tarmac, which causes a lot of rollovers, so I got the swaybar kits for front and rear.

Is that from the hard or the soft swaybar kit? I bought the hard one up front and not sure if it is too stiff or not... Installed the second stiffest one from that kit.

I actually bought the kits that included 3 different sway bar sizes (not all hard or all soft) and it looks like I used either the medium or thick bars. I would try some out and see how they work for the surfaces you run on and if you don't like them, try the other sizes.

There's a quick guide for how each size changes the handling here and it's the same set I bought: DRX Sway Bar Set

I just saw that there are 2 sway bar kits with 3 different size rods in them one of the kits is called soft and one is called hard. TRW152/153 I think?
I bought the one called hard sway bar kit and installed one of the rods up front which seem a tad too hard for my driving but I can still go down one size on the rod from the same kit.
