I dont know enough about the Cusco stuff to comment any further.

You really need to get the car looked at and for someone who knows the differences between adjustable struts and standard fixed ones.

If they are standard fixed ones I would go for either HDC Impreza ones or KYB Legacy specific ones as already stated off line.

Without knowing whats fitted I'd be concerned that whatever you fit "in pairs" may not match the retained ones!! Ie the fronts you are keeping might be low at the front but the backs might not be as low when replaced. This could upset the way the car behaves.

If you have the cash and time I would recommend changing the full set of struts and refit your lowered springs but only after inspection by some one who knows whats what.
