Welcome. No, can't simply bung on the Japanese bits and expect it to work. This has been asked a few times before so clicking Search will get you a stack of good info.

Incidentally, has the 1994 WRX turbo been converted to front entry? If not it won't fit your car - and even then you'll need a third party ECU to run it all as the 97-98 ECUs can't be reprogrammed (at time of writing at least).
