Impreza L upgrades

Hey guys, I've been driving a white 4-door Impreza L that I bought from my grandmother for $400 for over a year now. I recently decided that instead of buying a second car as a project I would start modifying the L since other than having crappy interior it's in amazing shape for a '94. I havent done anything major yet, just a front STB and the JDM ver.2 front bumper and hood. Before doing an engine swap I want to upgrade the suspension and brakes.
I was wondering if aftermarket shocks (GAB to be specific) would be a direct bolt on, or would I need to swap out the rear suspension and brakes for the 2.5RS or WRX setup first.
I was also looking at Swift sway bars, would the previous question apply to this upgrade as well?
