Default what model subaru have i got?

How can you tell which model you have?

On my log book it just says SUBARU 2-AXLE-RIGID BODY SALOON

I have a 93 classic import

It is turbo awd

I have two descriptions

1 SUBARU IMPREZA TURBO 4WD 1994cc 4 DOORS PETROL MANUAL
2 SUBARU IMPREZA WRX 4WD 1994cc 4 DOORS PETROL MANUAL

WHICH IS THE RIGHT DESCRIPTION?

Is it an import from Japan (JDM)?

If so it's more likely to be the latter

There are a number of ways of finding out from the codes on the Chassis, ECU and Engine numbers (if original). Just a matter of finding someone who knows where the data regarding the codes and what year/model/market they correspond to.

Depends where it's from. If it's a Japanese market import, you have an Impreza WRX. If you have a UK market car, you have an Impreza Turbo 2000 AWD. If you have a European (or other) market import, it could be called something else.
