From my research I found that the JDM had the following differences.
Produced from 2000
Larger Turbo
Privacy Glass (GL model)
Rear wiper
Folding Mirrors
HID lights (GL model)
280 bhp
There are probably a few others but these are off the top of my head. I was under the impression that all Sti7 were 6 speed. Uk versions diddnt appear until 2002 I think.
I owned a 280 Classic WRX and to be honest the Sti is no quicker but there is a massive difference between the cars in power delivery. The Sti is so smooth and is a gives a less seat of your pants experience. IMHO I am no expert driver mind and I am sure a lot of people will have different opions
I have included some links I used as a good source for research

This is who I bought mine from an excellent service from Lee who may be worth speaking to about your current Sti circumstances
