This was a test of the newly installed Forester suspension on my '95 Impreza. The lift is about 2-3 inches, and the suspension is a ton softer as you can see when I go over bumps. The footage was shot with a pro-drift camera suction-cupped to the hood.

  • looks really well set up how does it go offroad? and are your driveshafts at big angles or do they sit faily level with the ground still? i want to do this to mine. but not if im going to destroy cv shafts running them at massive angles. hope your camera was ok

  • @b6ke

    It handles fairly well offroad, the extra 3 inches of height keeps you from bottoming out on a lot of things as you can see. It doesnt handle very well on pavement. The cv shafts were at angle because I did not go with a full forester suspension. If you replace the control arms, lateral links, swaybars, and hubs with those of a forester you'd be set. I only did the strut swap for fun and because there werent any write-ups for it on my forum. Youll find a full writeup on RS25.com.

  • @SubaruGLlifted I've been wondering about that - how much can you lift an impreza without affecting the steeing shaft or the axles too much?

  • so good. i love lifted subies, this looks like loads of fun

  • I make 2 inch strut tops gives you more lift then the springs for 250

  • Awesome! Hey I have a 95 Impreza Wagon in need of all new struts and I DO like to take it offroad and drive in MN blizzards. Care to comment on how it rides on rough streets? My stock setup isn't too smooth or soft, it crashes over bumps, dips, and joints. How does the Foz swap compare? Thanks man

  • Nice, i want one.

  • Oh, helllll yeah!!! We had a '76 Pinto we used to do this to, but no lift - LOL! Nice work!

  • Hahahaha you are my hero!

  • Nice
