I'd highly recommend just replacing the suspension. You're not going to get a huge jump in height or anything....it's far from being an "off-road" type air suspension that you can get more height. If you really want more height, get a set of outback struts and springs, and install them. If you want to spend any money on trying to fix the system. Have the shop run the diag. procedure for the air suspension. Here's what they need to do, and the codes. http://www.main.experiencetherave.com:8080/subaru_manual_scans/FSM_Scans/AirSuspension_diag1.jpg http://www.main.experiencetherave.com:8080/subaru_manual_scans/FSM_Scans/AirSuspension_diag2.jpg If they find something simple, fix it......if it's going to be several thousand dollars to fix....just swap to a conventional suspension.

The brakes were more then likely not bed in properly. What happens is pad material is unevenly distributed on the rotor, and when you heat up the brakes good, the coefficient of friction is different between the pad material on the rotor and the rotor itself, so you get the shudder you're experiencing. I'm assuming your GT doesn't have too many miles on it, so I doubt it's a "warped" rotor. To properly bed brake pads, you need to do about 10 consecutive 60-10 mph stops by applying firm/medium brake pressure. You don't want to jam on the brakes, but you don't want to do light stops either. Drive around for 15 minutes to let the brakes cool, (during this time, try not to leave the brakes applied for an extended period of time, like at a traffic light. This is a contributor to uneven brake pad deposits.). After that 15 minutes of cool down, repeat the 10 consecutive stops, and cool down.

If you're looking for just a direct swap "plug n play" type thing.....the engine should probably be from a 90-94 legacy. Depending on MT or AT, that will have some effect on what is plug n play vs a little swapping of sensors, etc. Tranny...depending on mt/at, will determine what will work, and what won't.

Hmmm. So it's worse when it's cold? Might be the coolant temp sensor, but the symptoms your experiencing are pretty severe for the coolant temp sensor. It's a $20 item though, so it might be worth the money to eliminate it. Have you tried running d-check mode? It's a more "active" diagnostic method. Instructions are on my site. other possibility is that the ECU is not working properly.
