Raising the height of impreza gx

Recommended Posts

Hello, looking for some advice please. I have a 2004 impreza 2.0 Gx and - for ground clearance - we would like to raise the height by 2 - 3". What is the best way to do it? Is it possible by changing the springs and, if so, can anyone recommend the best ones to use?

Thank you everyone, Linda

Top mount spacers would be your best bet, there's loads of companies in the us that do them basically a piece of polyurethane that fits between the top of the shock assembly and the body, I'll dig out a link for you.

Also as well as blocking Isnt the forester springs change an option - based upon a shared platform - the reverse of FarmerPugs project? mind you dont know if it will get you the full additional height?

I would do 25mm lift blocks for top hat (quite easy get these made up)

then add some custom 35mm lift srings (springcoil.co.uk)

Splitting lift by using both blocks & springs is better than using springs alone as you loose too much strut travel with spring alone.

cheapest way would be 50mm lift blocks but not the best way.
