Would the this front strut bar work on our legacys? I think the rear works but I keep finding mixed answers on the years for the fronts.

Looks like no, I compared the whiteline part numbers for the BD and GDs.

Threw the STi struts on and they were just fine, well after we broke loose the crappy rusty bolts.

If they were from a 06 WRX they will fit. You got different suspension my friend. Get your money back

 

I didn't pay for them so I am not too worried. It is weird that they didn't want to mount up correctly. I just double checked the KYB online catalog and it shows the same top hats for my 95 and an 02-07 Impreza so they should be the same. I will give it another shot and hopefully it works, if not I will just blow up this damn car

^Nope they are the same pattern. Are you sure the tophat is the correct one?

 

Yup. They were off of an 06 WRX.

when I went to put WRX tophats in the rear of my 95 BD the bolt spacing was different. Has anyone else run into this issue?

So what about us that are not in JDM land? What body parts from an STI or WRX would swap onto my 95 legacy if any? Or any aftermarket bumpers or body parts could i look at?

 

 

Basically you are asking if you can swap Impreza body parts onto a Legacy? No, you can't.

I just found out that you can use a 6spd tranny mount with a 5spd car. My shift knob was moving forward on deceleration so we tossed in an STi tranny mount my friend had laying around.

I got a new job so I only drive mine one day a week I am using WAY less gas though, so that is good I guess.

WOW, she got ripped off, i lust bought a 208k mile 99 GT limited with alot of issues (not all that we even knew about) for $2,600

 

I got a 95 L sedan 5spd with 190k and blown struts for $1200 A customer came into my friends shop with a 99 outback they had just bought and it needed almost $8k in work, engine and tranny were both toast.
