If its a newage i was quoted £536 from subaru for two rear struts. You can buy KYB replacements for about £150 each

If 2 rear struts are £536 then if you had to do all 4 you might as well splash out on ASTs.

Some rod diameters were increased on the Blobeye cars. Nevertheless I can't imagine that KYB don't do stuff for an 04. In fact the STi struts off my 03 car had KYB stamped on them anyway. Scoobyclinic do KYB and AST kits so you could ask them.
