    i think they might. i have heard that the supsension from the wrx will mount up to GCs worst case senario is you keep your stock top hats.

    well..i dont have a picture of the coilovers but i know that it is brand new and it is a set. they are made from/by koaim1.from what i read it said that they are supposed to be a bit stiffer than most coilovers and the picture said that i supposed to come with all the rubber pieces...but it didn't .....it came with only a few rubber pieces. enough to help the noise and all...well..maybe tonight i will bring them out to firestone.. if any one wants to look at them..

    yikes if they are stifer than most it will be a bumpy ride. you dont need the rubber pieces. i put them in on mine along with the side allen screws to hold them to the strut and one winter latter the rubber thingies are no where to be found, and the allen screws fell out. wheni jack up the car i and slide the coilover sleave up and down and round and round. but when the car is on them the dont move one bit becuase of the shape of the spring mount. its like an updide down cone, so the sleeve just sits in one spot. only noise i get is form spring creaking when i turn w/ out moving.

    erik is jealous of my wicked fender gaps or hes tired of riding in the sky. lol

    If you get these, I'd suggest you put the harder ones in the rear. As in put them in reverse opposed to where they should go. You'd get better performance!
