That will depend on the sub model, WRX or WRX STI or the regular Impreza? Here are the part numbers for the regular Impreza.

Drum 26740FG000 $137.30
Wheel Cylinder 26705FG000 $55.28
Shoes 26694FG000 $99.95

Here is how the job is done in the images below. Also, this generic guide can help as well:

I'm unsure honestly the VIN is Jf1gh61618h810737 but I think it is the regular Impreza model.

Okay, then these part numbers should be correct. Let me know if you need anything else to get the repair done.

Can you please send me a link for a brake hardware kit? My springs are rusted out and very worn it'd be best to replace it all but no auto store near me has it.
