Do you mean from a Forester? Not a whole lot will just drop in, most of the parts will require other things to be changed with them.

I've compared them. All other Subaru struts don't have swaybar endlink brackets on the struts like the SVX. The upper mount has different hole pattern and the raised section is larger on the Impreza struts. The knuckle for the Impreza is also thinner. It can be made to work, but is in no way a bolt-on swap.
