i have 2006 wrx struts in my 97 gt, they fit perfect, but i have h tein springs, is not as stiffer as the wrx, because the leggy is a little bit heavier, but i like them so far, they handle fine,

I suggest not by much. if at all
and would only be slightly stiffer

As i've said a lot recently, a complete set of 02-04STi suspension goes straight in.
lowers a GT by ~15mm, is much stiffer and handles great.
Alternatively the JDM Bilstein struts/ springs offer a similar stance, but slightly softer than the STi's.

for a lower stance and slightly stiffer, the STi pink springs on the same STi struts are great too.

Stock 05 WRX struts/springs raised the front of my BD, and lowered the rear, by around .25" Looked funny but handled GREAT.
