I will measure and see ( as I have an 05 STI and the 93 SS.
sadly, I should have done this when I pulled the blue carpet out of the STI.

OK, it would be close. But since both cars have very different cuts for the center console and rear seats, you would be better using a newer legacy carpet.

So when you say newer legacy carpet, do you mean 94+? Or do you just mean better shape stock carpet?

I just ordered a new Impreza carpet from these guys;

No holes are pre-cut, so it should work nicely in our cars... it'll be a while before I get it in tho. I reasoned that the floorpans are basically identical, it's just the mounting points of the belts, handbrake, etc. might be different. Nice selection of colors, and it cost about $120.
Free shipping if ordered from the website...I actually found them on Ebay, but it was cheaper on their site.

I actually think the impreza carpet might be a hair short.
I was lookng at replacing the carpet, and will be trying to find a BD or BE carpet.
I think they will be the closest.

Carpet Update!
The Impreza carpet I mentioned here a few months ago is now going in. Very nice quality, I popped for the optional thick nap.
The carpet is very generously cut, so there's no problem width-wise, I am doing quite a bit of trimming, actually. It's long enough for everything except the two ears of carpet on either side of the rear seat...which, if you look at them, are actually sewn-on extensions on the original carpet. I am using a large piece I cut out for the center seat belt pedestal, cut in half, to replicate those extensions...fits perfectly.
The carpet kit is "molded" only in a general sense, in that there's a few humps in it for the tranny tunnel and seat mount bars, and it's kinda boat-shaped, but don't expect a factory fit, there's a lot of cutting and trimming involved. But it does fit our cars, and they have a HUGE selection of colors and weaves, so I'd call this one a winner.
