WRX Brake and hub swap
I'm wondering if u can swap the entire knuckle, brakes, hubs and struts
from a WRX, front and rear? Plus wheels of course.

Thoughts?

Hubs not even close?
Different ball joints?

Different ball joints, top mounts are different on the struts as are the strut to hub bolt placement, different axles (easiest to overcome)

Re: WRX Brake and hub swap
Do you mean WRX or STi? They're different, and the WRX parts are really no better than ours (plus they have the useless 5x100 bolt pattern).
