you will need to use 02-03 rear strut tops, but they will work fine, see

I was running the new H&R springs which are supposed to be 1.4/1.3 f/r drop, but was not happy with how uneven the drop was, there was still about a 2" gap up front, and 3/4" in back, but they did ride very nice, just a bit more firm than stock. The Teins drop perfect, 1" gap front, about the same 3/4" in back, but the are definitly alot more firm than the H&Rs, okay for me but might be a bit much if your big on ride comfort.

Krinkov, is that an STI? The scoop and fog covers say yes but the spoiler and wheels say no.

How long after you install springs do the struts usually last? I want to put some tein springs on my rex, but not sure about the struts dying.
