The new VB WRX gets a new turbocharged 2.4-liter four cylinder boxer engine, which serves up 271 horsepower and 35.6kg-m of torque, mated to six speed manual or “Subaru Performance Transmission”, a new continuously variable transmission (CVT) plus the legendary Subaru symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system with torque vectoring. The WRX is built on the Subaru Global Platform which also offers a substantial upgrade in ride and handling performance from the previous generation thanks to improved chassis rigidity and lowered center of gravity.
Hardrace is now offering a series of suspension and chassis for the new WRX to further improve its performance and driving pleasure.

Steering tie rod angle changes as the suspension if lowered/lifted. This will make the car difficult to control due to the unwanted toe change during suspension travel (Bumpsteer). Hardrace RC tie rod ends, by relocating the tie rod end ball joint pivot point, will help return the geometry back to original specs for proper steering response. The tie rod ends are manufactured from high quality pillow ball joint to provide a more direct and responsive steering feel and sustain extensive loads. Its adjustable design allows the rod height to be fine adjusted by spacers to accommodate different ride heights.
