I was wondrering if I should purchase after market bolts or OEM ones. I've searched the archives and although it mentions aftermarket camber bolts it never says who they were manufactured by. I have a B14 and my bolts are bad :-( Any suggestions on which ones to get would be appreciated. Thanks

I'd say go with the OEM bolts. The aftermarket camber bolts tend to slip if you hit a pot hole or catch a curb at a track day. IMHO;)

I'd go with an OEM bolts. If you are going aftermarket make sure they are 8.8 bolts and 99.9% similar to the OEM.

But if I was you I would go with an ARP bolts if it is aftermarket. :)

ARP never heard of them. I'll do a search and see if I can find them in cyber space. Thanks :D

if you do anything, go to a subaru dealership and see if you can match some up off an Impreza. they actually use a camber bolt stock, and is 300000x bulkier than any camber bolt I have ever seen.

Here's a link to ARP's web site (http://www.arp-bolts.com/index.html)

I'm not sure what you have plan for your car. But ARP is well known in the racing industry and NHRA. About 90% of all racers uses nothing but ARP. (I think it's 99.9% personally - can't prove that though).

The ARP bolts might be an overkill for your setup or intention. I have 'em on my "91 Classic" because I grew up using ARP on my mustang when came to building it up. They are a bit pricey.
