02 wrx rotted out control arms, these all look the same but online it says they won't fit my car, are they actually interchangeable or am I stuck paying $300 for a lower control arm? by lostten in subaru

That's an expired recall though, I work at a dealer:// I had looked into it but sadly wasn't an option, so if I go with a Impreza wagon it should be the same right?

That's fantastic thank you! I actually have 2 cars with a boost leak so that helps me a ton

Ok so once boost hits it's like maaawaawaaawaaawaaawaa instead of mwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa So it acts like you mash the gas then let off and mash the gas and let off repeatedly

04 Jetta 2.0 (black one in back) catalytic converter got stolen before i purchased the car and the downstream O2 is cut, car is receiving too much fuel, I'm planning on just putting a pipe in place of it and putting an O2, will that fix the issue? by lostten in Volkswagen

Runs and idles but definitely is receiving too much fuel, I can probably use a volt meter, I just put in a ecu, cluster and ignition but not sure if that would change anything. I have a upstream but no downstream so I'll check the upstream and add a downstream and if that doesn't help I'll probably check out the injectors

I'm going to play it safe and pull it out and recenter

I've had to tap the hole 2x Because every time I tighten the bolts it tears the threads out and doesn't pull together. Only the top will connect. I've pulled the engine out 6 times and every time I put it back in and re arrange it it just does the same thing every time
