Default Jap import vin tag and engine removed

Looking for help, read a post here before but can't find it now, have version 1 impreza wrx 1994 jap import, engine, chassis plate and interior removed, have done carvx and some other free checks. So far I've gotten colour code (black mica) and original engine number. I'm looking for somewhere to get the original applied model code, transmission type, trim code and engine type. Any help appreciated

AFAIK the VIN should also be stamped into the firewall

Yeah have that and the reg but I'm looking for the other details that would have been on the tag, carvx has limited details of the imports of the 90's

If you tell me (PM) the VIN I can get the applied model code etc from the parts database.
