What year front strut bars fit on a 2000 legacy? Would a wrx one fit?

Impreza 1993-2005 - make sure you have LOW profile mounting arms, not the huge chunky ones that Cusco etc have.

This has been covered before in other threads I believe?

So i bought a WRX strut bar...so far its not working. https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/10/downsized_1029001214-1.jpg


Going to a friends house to figure out a way, he said he got it for his RS and it didnt work at first....so hopefully we can manage something, we always seem to find out problems for things on my car. :D

Arms are too high. And you'll probably have to mount it "backwards" ie closer to the throttle body.

The GC ones will work 100% without modification, the GD ones like what you got, I haven't tried personally yet but I've seen it work by flipping it around...the orientation of the studs are different than on the BE/BH.

Ive tried flipping, talking to someone about trading. Hopefully it works out

redrill the plates then, its only mild steel. Even a cordless drill can punch through that. Don't know how the underhood clearance is though.

Yeah, I know i can drill through it. But the side mounts are where one of the holes are. I have an idea on how to make it work though
