Exclamation

Can anyone help me try and find out exactly what model my car is as going by the " GC " reference is getting me no-where!

Rough (standard)spec is :-

Black WRX (MY94) 4 Door.
Engine Code GC8
Short Gear Ratios
Calculated Top End at 129 MPH
Aluminium Boot
Aluminium Bonnet
Suspected Ali Panels all round??
Rear Seat is solid (IE : Not split)
Blistering Acceleration!!
No ABS
No Sound deadening material (or very little)
DVLA records show “ Subaru 2 Axle Rigid Body Saloon “

Can anyone shed any lighty on this

PS: Decals on boot are Gen "STi" but not sure if after-market add on.

Dirtboy, go to the SIDC FAQ and match your Type code with those in section 2.1.1. This will identify it for you.
