oh also STU allows you to change suspension bits, but its a horrible PAX for the STI compared to TBSP/ BSP
It's not all that shocking. I would say that nearly every single SECCS STI that's been tracked has bent their stock endlinks. They're (intentionally) the weak point in the suspension. They work fine though until they fail... i.e. they're not soft plastic w/ rubber bushings. They're solid endlinks with spherical bearings, so they have great feedback, but if you hit a curb too hard at the track, they bend. Or if you lower the car, you're almost guarenteed to bend 'em over the control arm.

Also, in T/BSP, front and rear swaybars are unlimited. This is only a problem for the T/AS folks.
