Wrx suspension fit a 97 Outback?
Would a wrx suspension be a straight fit? Can I just buy coilovers from a bugeye and be good?

I'm looking to buy some coilovers off a 04 wrx. Would I need to modify anything?

Not trying to be a dick, but you are gonna have a hell of a time finding parts for that early Legacy Chassis .
I think Primitive Racing carries some stuff but it's going to be more rally oriented
