It will work but you will have to either buy or make some spacers to allow the strut to mount to the tops right.. When you buy aftermarket springs the part # is the same for 04+ WRX/STI's. Take a look @ Gruppe-S and you will see what I'm talking about http://www.gruppe-s.com/Subaru/subsus.htm

BTW, If you have to buy new tops go with some GroupN's.
