how do you tell the difference between a wrx and an sti apart from sti stickers? on my logbook it jus says subaru, my guess is that its a wrx but new to scoobys... my engine code is ej20k...is this any help... any info wud be appreciated thnx

 

What age is the car, is the car a uk car or a jap car..

 

hi mate, its a 96 import

 

Applied model code, on the plate on top of the passenger strut under the bonnet, Post it up or check here:-

Gaz.

 

it's an STi from what I can tell.

D Sep�ｽ@96�ｽf WRX STi Version 3 280ps/6500rpm Engine/EJ20K(STi)
Boxer Master-4 Turbo
impeller 11

taken from here, but the page auto-forwards so is hard to see the info

 

You wont be able to tell just from the EJ20k, Unless it was an EJ22K as this was only in one car(22b), As far as i am aware.

EJ20K ..1994cc DOHC 16V Turbo - Design change from the EJ20G (96-98)

 

yep realised that after I posted and saw another link with many variations on that code.

For the twin turbo legacies it's simple: EJ20H is GT and EJ20R is GT-B. Thought it would be similar but noooooooo

 

thanks everyone...what was the numbers i need off the plate?

 

it says applied model code GC8D48D

 

GOT IT!!! its a wrx thanks everyone for the help lol

 

and then stick it in here

 

GC8D48D =,WRX 4 door / 258bhp

 

apparently the fella i got it off had it on a dyno at santa pod and it was 307bhp... has had a few mods but not sure on that figure
