XYZ Racing Drift Spec Coilovers — Subaru IMPREZA GDA/GDB STI A-D/GGA/GGB (PCD:5 X 100) 2WD/4WD 2000-2007

Converting a GDB Impreza for drift means working against the car’s own DNA: a symmetrical all-wheel-drive platform with the EJ boxer slung low and forward over the front axle. The XYZ Racing Drift Spec coilover set for the Subaru Impreza GDA/GDB STI is built for exactly that job, settling the body through fast, committed transitions so you can hold a clean angle instead of chasing the chassis.

Run it on the original 4WD layout or a 2WD conversion – this kit covers both, on the 5 x 100 PCD cars built from 2000 to 2007. Either way the priority is the same: ride height low enough to drop the roll centre, with enough bump stroke left to keep the loaded tyre planted mid-slide.

What this coilover kit does for your 2000-2007 Subaru Impreza GDA/GDB STI

Drop a GDB onto these and the first thing you feel is how much flatter the body stays when you flick it in. The Impreza’s boxer-forward weight bias normally loads the front hard and leaves the rear feeling lazy on turn-in; firmer damping and a lower centre of gravity sharpen that initial rotation, so the car takes a set quickly and predictably. Through the slide, the controlled bump stroke keeps the rear contact patch working rather than skating, which means smoother corrections and less snatching at the wheel. Lowering the ride height tidies the stance and the geometry at once, and the adjustable platform lets you corner-balance for the weight you actually carry: driver, cage, fuel.

About the Drift Spec coilover

The Drift Spec is XYZ Racing’s dedicated competition-drift setup, separate from their fast-road and circuit kits. It is engineered first for sliding: the spring and damping package is tuned to stabilise the body during high-speed direction changes, so the car holds a consistent angle instead of pitching and unsettling itself when you commit. XYZ position it as a kit that actively enhances drift performance, not one that simply lowers the car. The design centres on getting ride height down while preserving usable bump stroke, the combination that gives fine control of the slide rather than a harsh, bottomed-out chassis. For a GDB STI built to compete, that means a platform you can read and trust right at the edge of grip.

Fitment for the Subaru Impreza GDA/GDB STI A-D / GGA/GGB (2000-2007)

This kit is cut for the GD-platform Impreza – the GDA and GDB STI A to D cars, plus the GGA/GGB variants – on the 5 x 100 stud pattern, across the 2000 to 2007 build window. It fits both the factory 4WD layout and 2WD drift conversions. Check that your hubs read 5 x 100 before ordering.
