Hey ive got a 01 legacy gt manual. Looking for upgrades to improve performance along with ride quality. I want to know which seats from other models can fit in the car. I need heated for the cold north east winters.

your best bet is to pick something and run with it - do some reading, etc. like brakes.....suspension....read up, get a feel for what you're after and ask some specific questions.

 

jamal has a great brake thread about possible upgrades. it's in the USRM. which is probably a great place to peruse for other possible upgrades.

 

nice sway bar thread on one of the legacy forums. white line and others make improved end links for the sway bars.

 

the legacy GT's i've been in seem to ride nice, i like they way they ride.

 

not much to gain with a normally aspirated engine so go with whatever you personally think sounds cool. can't make easy significant 1/4 mile or 0-60 improvements, simpler to enjoy the car for what it is IMO.

 

go test drive a few with heated seats, they are really lame. by the time they're warm the car is already warm, pointless. someone with back problems or a coddled needy person with a dinky range of tolerance may enjoy them. the novelty is an attraction too, "that's right honey, heated seats". i can't lie, it does sound good.

 

i bought a set for one of my other cars and they're useless for me so i'm not going to bother installing the.

 

if you still want them - you'll need any 2000-2004 Legacy or Outback. Wagon and sedan are intechangeable up front, they'll need to match for the rears. Some models have side air bags, but you can still install them, those bags just won't work.

Can you put Impreza/wrx or sti interior in it? Like doorpanels and seats?

I doubt it - That's Impreza stuff, and AFAIK it doesn't fit Legacies. Your best bet would be to find a high-spec Legacy (I don't know what trim levels you guys get - over here it'd be the B4 or GT-B trim) and see if you can swap the gear over from that.
