Put some photos on of the car and engine bay and hopefully we'll be able to help you further. I think the wr1 wasn't released until 2003/4.
A lot of imprezas either wrx or sti were imported as GL's.
Look for a specialist insurance company like
SKY
Keith Michaels etc
They should be able to quote you for what you're actually driving and not what is says on the log book.
