****EDIT****

The below method in grey coloured text no longer works.

However, there is the possibility of installing FAST on a Windows based PC.

I currently have the JDM version running on a Windows 10 x64 system. Its still in Japanese, but once you know your way around, its very easy to use.

I will link to another forum which has all of the details and files that you will need to install FAST, either for JDM, USDM and EU Subaru cars.

First read through this post ---> http://forums.jdmvip.com/showpost.ph...26&postcount=1

Second read this post ---> http://forums.jdmvip.com/showpost.ph...9&postcount=27

The notes in the second post talk about using AppLocale. If you have Windows 7 or above, AppLocale MAY not work. But luckily there is another alternative and that is known as Locale Emulator. I actually find it better than Microsofts AppLocale.

You can get Locale Emulator from here. ---> https://xupefei.github.io/Locale-Emulator/

Make sure you read this page. Especially the part about anti-virus detection. I will make it clear that I have nothing to do with this software. I had a virus warning when trying to download this file. But after testing and reading about Locale Emulator, anti-virus software detection is a false positive.

Here is the whole thread for reference.

If you need any help in navigating the JDM version of the software, let me know.

I may make a video tutorial on setting up and using the JDM version if there is enough interest.

Thanks

Hello.

During my search for parts, and part numbers, I have found a Russian site that is basically Subaru FAST.

Which is the Subaru Electronic Parts Catalogue (EPC) for those that do not know what Subaru FAST is.

Although it is a Russian site, a lot of the sub menus are in English.

The JDM section is not English, its either Russian or Japanese, I dont have either language pack installed on my computer so I could not tell you what language its in.

However, if you go to the Euro or US section, you can get an idea what's going on in the JDM section.

You can input your VIN.

For example: The VIN GDB035460 will bring up the details of a 2006 Spec C in White (NOT MY CAR!)

If you use your VIN it should come up with your details.

HERE is the EPC

HERE is the EPC Translated into English by Google

NOTE* The Google Translation does not translate the sub menus into English, well for me it did not.

This has been a great help to me. I have found all of the parts I require, and I have also been able to cross reference part numbers between US/EU parts with JDM parts to see if they are the same.

This covers the following Subaru models:



An invaluable tool I am sure you will agree, and I hope it helps you.

Thanks

Thanks Dozza, appreciated!

Suberman

Thanks for sharing! So are the part #s for the rear doors same?

DoZZa

iTrader: (4)

Yes, they are the same mate.

Suberman

Doesn't seem to work on my car. It works on GDB035460

DoZZa

Are you putting the VIN in correctly?

Dont put the whole VIN in, just the last 8 or 9 characters.

DoZZa

Just done a quick check with VIN codes I have found with Google and it seems to be 50/50 if you get a hit or not.

You can still use it by manually selecting your model specifics.

Suberman

Yeah, just like this format: GDB###### (eg. GDB035460)

I don't know what it says, but i'm assuming it says "no such record or invalid code" or something like that.

Do i have to choose Japan or Europe etc? Once i click on that, it goes into an error page.

Maybe it only works for cars in Europe?

By the way, i just realised i could add an avatar even though i'm a non paying member.

[quote=Suberman;9700593]Anyone else managed to make it work?[/quoteTry

Try entering the VIN in capital letters only.

It does work, it just seems that some VIN's dont.

Suberman

[QUOTE=DoZZa;9700702]Yup, thats what i did. I guess i happen to fall into the 50% that doesn't work.

Anyway, still good site to share.

[quote=Suberman;9700814]Thats a shame.

I am still yet to discover why only some VIN's work.

But as said, it can be used manually.

I have just updated the first post of this thread. Please take a look if you need parts numbers for your car. Especially JDM!!!

Sorry for the thread revival but does anyone know the where about of or have access to a copy of the Subaru FAST EPC please?
I have the PDF's which are print out conversions but it would be super handy if I could search for individual parts if possible for my particular car model alone.
The car i'm about to restore is a UK 1999 2000 Turbo Impreza Wagon.
Many thanks in advance
