mods

hey ...is it just me or is it freaking impossible to find engine mods for a forester.....ive looked online, import mags, import catalogs, truck/suv stuff, and all i can find are cargo nets and hood scoops.......aaaaaaaahhhhhh

The Forester shares its engine with the Impreza 2.5RS models, if you did a search for performance parts for the 1998 through 2001 Impreza 2.5RS you should find what you're looking for.

Also, much of the rest of the Forester is swappable with the Impreza, since it's built on the same platform. Check to see what fits and what doesn't, though.

does the same go for the 05s

Pretty much.

Do you have an 04 Forester? The STi 20mm rear sway bar is a nice kit to have. It is $135 for the whole kit. Includes all the brackets, bolts, and bushings.
