Hi

This may sound like a daft question but i have recently purchased a 1996 wrx v-limited which is a fresh import from Japan. The question is, are the service parts the same as a UK model, i.e can I walk into my local Subaru dealer and purchase them over the counter or do I need to buy them from a specialist.

Many thanks in advance

Phil

Yes you can buy parts over the counter but you will need to give them a UK chassis number for even a sump plug washer. My dealer doesn't entertain me if they know its for an import but I got my mates VIN plate details for his 95 UK Impreza. ;)

Most service items you can get from various tuning places, Scoobyworld, Scoobymania, Scoobysport, Graham Goode, Roger Clark etc etc.

Really depends on your local dealer, I went to a very nice one at the weekend who even came out to check the car to make sure the part was the same as the uk model :)

some want your money, some dont from what I can work out.

Thanks for the help guys.

Very nice chaps who will help you out even if you are not buying from them.
