You poor man - but yes.

ICAA members are entitled to corporate plus pricing (I know as my wife is a CA and I checked with my dealer yesterday

Thanks fellas. Ooh corporate plus does that mean it's better or I get charged "plus"???😜

I know it's been mentioned here before but I can't get over no electric seats on the R not even just the driver. I'll survive though...

Hey guys, my post has nothing to do with price but more about handling of the car.

I just purchased and installed a H&R rear swaybar on my R. Wow, what difference it makes straight away. Turn in much sharper, car corners flatter.

Installation took all of 40min, no jack required just a pair of low line ramps.

I'd recommend this upgrade to anyone.

Is this a bigger diameter bar, do you know what the std vs this one is in size? I did this mod on my MY00 WRX and it worked a treat also so I would be interested in this.

Hey mate,

Yeah this is a thicker bar and it's a solid not hollow bar. It's 25mm.

You could buy it from OT for $315 delivered.
