our rear endlinks and the carrier bushings both work. From what my rough measurements under the dealer car. the width of the bar is the same but diameter is a good bit smaller.
Struts are the same but most likely different valving/ rates. Myles at RCE has all that info.

Good to hear the endlinks will work on my BRZ, Tom. I bought a set of yours to use on my Legacy and never used them.

Tom, are you saying the swaybar from my 2010 STi should work on the BRZ? this would be cause for much happiness.

No, only the diameter is the same, bar overall is smaller...

Thanks for clearing that up. I only had a yoyo to rough measure it.
