Suspension question: 04 sti struts into 94 turbo wagon

Post by josht1 »

Hey guys,

I found a great deal on some 04 STI struts with RCE black coils but im wondering if they will bolt straight into my 94 turbo legacy wagon.

im under the impression that the fronts will work but the rears require a different top hat? is this correct? if so is their a top hat conversion kit i can get? anyone have the exact how to for me? thanks!

I did but it references 90-91 Legacy. Mine is a 94 turbo, i know there is a difference between the two right? does anyone know the factory spring diameter for a 94 turbo wagon? is it still 95mm like the 90-91? or is it 100mm like the impreza? do i need to use the top hats from a impreza? thanks

The author directly addresses your concerns in that link: "you'll be able to use 04+ rear impreza tapered springs on your 92-94, but you'll need..."
