Weird, possibly dumb question but what parts can be scavenged from the WRX and put into BE legacies? I have V5 STI intercooler now (many thanks thorpy you legend) but am intrigued by what else can be taken and used. I have heard the STIs radiator can be used, but how about STI springs? Also things like control arms (or if there\'s even any gain to be made from something like this), strut braces, callipers... in fact anything that I could learn/ use about this would be appreciated have tryed finding info on SL-I.net and nasioc but without much luck. So come on y\'all, someone knows ;D

Best thing for you to get is the turbo and ECU from one and enjoy your pseudo 100kg overweight wrx haha

Suspension doesn\'t interchange (front does, rear doesn\'t, no point swapping anyway) and almost everything else is generic / the same anyway, the B4 got the good alloy control arms / etc etc same as the STi\'s did over the wrx from what I know anyway

Brake calipers direct swap, do that

Cool 8) what about the springs and radiator? and aren\'t you the guy who built the amazingly quick B4?

he did that gtb, i have some bilstein rears with heavy springs for a be/bh if you are wanting some

Tempted but just had my bilsteins reconned and am just after some nicer springs. But many thanks for the offer dude

Haha sh!t no, mines a backyard special making normal B4 numbers - there are a few on here making big numbers with single turbo swaps tho

Radiator I would guess is 100% identical between the cars - put it this way there\'s no point swapping one for another

Front springs will interchange, but the rears are BE/BH specific

Awesome! Thanks Marky! Legend! So V5 springs should do it? Many thanks again!

[Marky]

Well, no - that\'s what I\'m saying

You could use the fronts, but you\'ll still need to find some rears anyway (wait... there\'s a set up there)

You can buy complete BE/BH spring & strut assemblies from strongs for like $150

Sweet, I see You\'re on SLI too aren\'t you?

[DacerX]

rear springs and shocks are the same for be/bh and bl/bp
