Question Impreza turbo tech timing belt question

Can anyone confirm something for me please

Are all the impreza turbo timing belts, regardless of Model year 281 teeth and 30mm wide?

As far as I can tell the only differences from year to year are when things like idler pulleys and tensioners changed numbers or upgrades/superseeded etc.

Thanks in advance

No, think some have different ammounts of teeth, you need a year specific belt for your car, early ones are different to later ones (classics).

No, all the turbo (and all other 4cam NA engines) share the same cambelt.

The only one that's different is the 2cam NA engine, and as far as I can remember there are 2 different belts for this engine, depending on MY.

Is the newer belt for the latest hatchback model then? - Not had to do one of these yet.
