Default Ohlin Coilovers on 2014 WRX Question

Quick background:
2014 WRX sedan with:
-Whiteline 22mm front and rear sway bars
-Kartboy endlinks
-JDM aluminum front lower control arms with SuperPro bushings
-Cusco front crossmemmber power brace
-Cusco lower subframe brace
-Volk TE37 18X9.5 +40 with 265/35R18 tires

My struts and springs are factory stock. This is a daily driver that is not raced at the track. I want to add a quality set of coilovers with some degree of street manners ( I have looked at the RCE blacks/Koni Yellow strut combo but want the ability to adjust ride height). I really like what I see in the Ohlins Road and Track coilovers but they are made for the STI only, not the WRX. I assume this is due to the rear knuckle/hub assembly mounting being different design. Can anyone point me in the direction of someone who has changed their WRX rear knuckle/hub to an STI version but keeps their 5X100 bolt pattern? (Trying to keep my Volk TE37 bolt pattern). Or is there some type of adaptor out there to bridge the difference between the WRX/STI? Or is it time to step up to the R180 rear? Thx in advance

Front knuckle is what is different between 5x100 and 5x114.3 cars.

Are you dead set on Ohlins? What about RCE T2s or KW V3s?
