The 7 digit "applied model" code found on the vehicle identification plate inside the engine bay is decoded in the following way.
Series code G=Impreza S=Forester B=Legacy etc.
Body type F=Wagon C=Sedan
Engine type 8=2.0L Turbo
Year code A=MY93 B=MY94 C=MY95&96 D=MY97 (facelift) E=MY98 F=MY99 G=MY00
Number of doors 2=2 door coupe 4=4 door saloon 5=5 door wagon/hatch
Model type 8=WRX 7=RA type E=Sti D=Sti Type R & RA
Transmission D=5 Speed Manual AWD P=4 Speed Automatic AWD

Try this:

It looks like your car may possibly be an STI version 2 555.

i'm gonna presume its an import, i was looking at a sti v2 about the same age which was a standard sti but had a roof vent and was the same colour as a 555. There seems to be a bit of difference on some imports.
