Car: 06 WRX wagon CGM
Class: Stuck working weekends
Default Swaybar choice for my 06 wagon

How does this sound to you more seasoned guys:

For my 06 WRX wagon. Car's a daily driver that I will soon start to autox.
Whiteline sways, 22 front adj, 22 rear adj. with kartboy endlinks all around. I plan on moving up to wagon pinks and tokico d-specs before summer's over.

I thought there was a 24mm wagon front, if there is, is that too much front bar for my needs? Adjustable not necessary?

IBtiresyoudingaling....those are a given.

I'd vote for Hotchkis or Cobb 25.4mm hollow bars and Poltec endlinks for your application.

Your plan sounds good to me, although Dean's suggestion for hollow bars is a good one as well. FWIW, I went from the stock front sway to the Whiteline adjustable 22mm set on the stiffer setting. The difference in handling wasn't night and day, but it's noticeable. And except for the one super rough dirt road I drove slowly on, it's just as comfortable on uneven surfaces.

I haven't AutoX'd with it yet, but balance hasn't been significantly affected (rear Cusco 22mm set on full stiff).

Kartboy makes great products. I have their front endlinks, short shifter, and front shifter bushings.

Honestly, if you can find a 24mm adjustable front, I'd hit it. I know Whiteline doesn't make one for the wagon.
