94 Gen 1 Wagon / braces and springs?

Post by comets »

I am looking to get braces and lowering springs for my 94 Gen 1 Wagon (BF).

I am wondering if ALL GC8 Impreza braces work on the wagon's?

How about lowering springs?

Yes I believe all the GC8 braces should fit.

Lower springs should work as well. I'd also suggest checking out some of threads in the sticky in this forum. This one should have a good bit of the info you are looking for.

Thanks Josh,



I've put in a GC8 front tower brace. However the mount's don't sit in a flushed manner as the Wagon's shock mount has a bit of 'weld' bulge. Would that be a concern? I am thinking if driven hard enough, the pressure on the tower bar would press against the welds and damaging the shock mount?

That bulge is most likely body sealer, rather than a weld.

Any chance you oould take a picture of it?

I will take a few snaps of the car later this afternoon, re: brace, and engine wobbles.

Thank you Josh for answer our questions.


Yes, it seems like sealer and not welding material.
