1995 Impreza L replacement doors?

[sabreofsd]

Hello all,

I'm in the middle of getting all of the parts together to turn a 95 Impreza L into a track car. The stock doors weigh a ton, are there carbon fiber/lightened replacements for them? I contacted Seibon and they said they only go back to 1998

 

TIA

If you mean they only go back to "1998" Those Doors will still work as its still the same chassis/body design.

 

I, for cost savings, would try to cut out most of the door and door jam and add a support bar inside the door, basicilly keeping only the outter skin. As for their Carbon Doors you are looking at $2,200 per door - $4,400 on two doors, your half way to a Turbo RS with spending that much. Plus seeing as they only offer doors for the Coupe, those doors are longer and will not work on a 4-Door Impreza.

 

The Weight of the doors is the least of your worries at this moment. Drop a EJ22T Closed-Deck with Delta Cams in there and you'd still be spending less then $4k.

Oops, yes, I did mean 1998. Post corrected for future readers

 

I actually meant to post that I have a 2dr Impreza L

 

That is a good point about just stripping out the interior though. I figured the doors would only be around 1k, oops!

 

Plans for the rest of the car are already pretty much planned out. I'm actually swapping out the engine from my STI (completely built, 9:1, Cosworth heads, 272/278 cams etc.) into it along with a 6 speed. The STI is going to get a semi-stock engine and a FP Green (the L will have my Dom 4.0 XT-R).
