Does the 07 Liberty GTB STI come standard with the STI Lower Arm Brace and STI Lateral Link Set?

Remember to get the sway bars to suit what you want in the car.

Front sway bars will lessen oversteer; rear sway bars will induce more oversteer. I'd recommend just the rears and leave the front.


So, if I were you, I'd get a thicker rear sway bar, caster adjustment bushing for the front, and realistically that's about all you need. Go from there if you want to get more into it.

IMO yes.

Whiteline is good value for money. I don't see the need to buy something more expensive like Cusco, Tanabe etc. because of shipping costs associated makes it almost 50% more expensive, and you just don't see the gains.
