What's the applied model code?

It's on the plate under the bonnet on the near side strut top.

That's a uk 17 digit vin no. No need to worry.
Look for the applied model code on ns turret top. This will indicate
Which model you have.

gc8hkfj is the applied model code its confusing me so much

Don Clark

The VIN is correct for a 2000 2.0L RHD manual Sport.

However the serial/sequential part of the VIN (last 6 characters) does not coincide with Subaru's database.......hence why it doesnt show up.

Is it as posted you need to check.

so what does this mean then my cars a bodge??? its surposed to be a 2001 impreza 2.0l non turbo manual sport special. isnt there only 400 made 200 in black and 200 in cashmere yellow?

Don Clark

A good lesson in using CAPITALS and not cutting and pasting..........
Manufactured in April 2000

Don Clark

All Subarus are Jap imports but yours is a UK car.

I have a 03 gx with a vin number JF1GD9KJ33G027545. Cannot work out what clutch this car uses. I would like to order one from an online shop but I need a part number. Please help
