  1. Hi all, Just thought I would let you all know that I had a lot of work done at http://www.perivalemotorrepairs.co.uk in west London over the last week and they were very good and reasonably priced for London. They are not subaru specialists but London has a severe lack of good hard working reasonably priced garages available and zero subaru specialists. These guys also have a full size floor vented paint booth in which they also painted my roof. Other work includes new rear set up including trailing arms, lateral links, rear discs, pads all round, braided hoses, front sway bar, drop links, bushes and they stripped and painted the back plates, ABS guides and front lateral links. I'm off out tomorrow to bed in those EBC's... Cheers
  2. @Miggs - It looks like I will have to. I've discovered that the part I want to buy for my new trailing arms is the cable guide/router for the ABS line. According to kinghams subaru it's only available (even though it's bolt on) with the ABS sensor etc for each wheel...at over £200 per wheel. It's only a chuffin bolt on bracket! So cable ties it is. If anyone knows of any 2002 sti's being broken please let me know as also looking for other bits n bobs.
  3. by the way I just figured out it may be the hand brake line or ABS...either or both but I guess the trailing arms just need fixing points (holes or mounting point) to attached the guides to.
  4. Hey all, Thanks for the warm welcome and suggestions. I did ask the supplier by tel and he said he didn't know and had not had any previous customers mentioning any issues. I also asked a London Subaru dealer by tel today after sending them some images of current links and my proposed new ones and they said they couldn't say as they do not work with after market supplier parts. I was considering OEM parts but I am suspecting they are more expensive and are not adjustable as with the Hardrace ones and come with all bushes. Interesting to hear about the Hardrace engine mount part number...maybe they use the same number for their parts so customers know that it will definitely replace their OEM part? I will continue to look for an answer...I have to get something installed before 30th Sept as off on a track day at Snetterton:) If you get any leads please let me know.... Cheers
  5. Hi all! 1st question from a newbie... I'm looking to replace my existing OEM trailing arms and transverse members (to upgrade and due to the excessive corrosion- see image) on 2002 sti prodrive with some Hardrace.co.uk parts. Could anyone tell me how the ABS lines would be attached as the OEM's have a routing system unlike the Hardrace versions? I'm guessing cable ties wouldn't cut it. Also any feedback on Hardrace parts would be appreciated before I buy. Thanks
