You can add Tein Street Basis Coilovers to the list. They utilize the stock top hats and are 6k/5k front/rear.

thanks L3go. the more you know

are you using the stock top hats? so tein street basics don't come with mounting/camber plates?

Is there a height difference in an 08+ wrx coilover vs stock 2010+ legacy suspension?

coilovers or the 08+ wrx stock suspension? bc coilovers are height adjustable

but as far as stock 08+ wrx suspension vs. stock 10+ legacy suspension goes, im pretty sure the dimensions are similar, almost near identical except for the top hats and possibly the spring rates/dampening

alright well, a friend of mine bought my 08+ wrx BC BR coilovers off of me (for his 13' impreza, which bolts right up FYI) so i won't find out for sure if the stock legacy top hats bolt right up... but looking at the top spring perches on the 08+ wrx BC BR coils, it looks as though the top hat SHOULD sit properly (the top perch is pretty flat). the BC BR strut shaft also looks similar in diameter to the stock strut shaft so there shouldn't be too much play with the steering bearing, and if there is could be remedied with a shim as noted here:

but anywho, i ordered another set of BC BR's for the legacy. 8k/8k springs with the shorter shock body aka 'extreme lows'. should arrive in a couple of weeks or so.

 

will post pics when done.

sorry if this isn't a legacy but if anyone cares, proof that the 08+ WRX's bolt right up to 13' imprezas

Not a 5thgen but you'll still shit yourself

$45k for a scion

^ well we'll see how it goes this weekend. if everything mounts up fine then so be it. besides i'll be doing it with my friend who is an audi tech. so he'll give me the green light to go ahead. if not, then i'll have a shop fab up the studs on the BC coils like how EFI Logics did for subielover's 5th gen.

I looked in to putting another brand of 08+ coilovers on my car a while back and the manufacturer said specifically that they were not compatible with the OEM tophats. Based on the pictures above, the BC's look as though the upper spring retainers are the same as the coilovers I was looking at and will not seat properly on the OEM tophat steering bearing.

do you know what 08+ coils by any chance?

if i do run into seating issues, there's always adding a fitting/adapter/washer. home depot/king bolt/harbor freight is your friend

actually, i had an 08' wrx with these BC racing coils on that i parted out before trading her in for the 13' legacy.

if that wasn't the case, then yes, i'd buy legacy specific coilovers

^ arite well i talked to BC and they're charging $245 for the top legacy camber plates/top mounts but they are still unsure if it'll fit with the 08 WRX BC racing camber plate mounts.

so **** it. going to attempt to swap over to the top stock hats this weekend. here's to hoping it'll work! props to grimmspeed for these pics/write up
