Anything 93-01 will fit. I'm actually looking into RS springs and struts for my L too. As for the 02 and up, I'm not sure, but I'd stick with looking for ones off a 93-01 for now if I was you.

Good luck!

Any spring/strut combo from any year will work with our cars. You just have to use your stock tophats. As for wagons i'm not sure. I just picked up some V7 springs to use with my AGX's during the winter cause the Ground Controls are waaaayyyy to stiff for the winter.

You can use springs from an LGT wagon 97-99 also. I put LGT sedan springs on my 96 sedan with corresponding KYB GR2's and new strut mounts (KYB from tirerack). I think you can use WRX spring/strut assemblies, nice if you could score some from a wagon to avoid saggy butt.

That is correct, all imprezas and at least the 92-2001 legacys use the mcpherson strut and the same front tophats. Its the rears that are different from the classics to the 02 and newer.

well i decided on getting gr2s as they were had for a good deal on ebay.. now i cant decide on a set of springs yet. i want something that provides less bodyroll but still is a comfortable ride(if thats possible)a little lower also but not alot its a daily driver and i have kids and need to be able to drive in the snow. my other ride is a acura cl 3.2 and i love how it handles and love how it rides. what do you suggest? any pictures also what your rides look like.
remember this is for a wagon..

i have RSB FSB strut braces front and back 205/40/17 tires.... thanks
