You need the applied model code to differentiate between a UK and JDM

If it has a rear wiper its jdm and if not its a uk.

Doh thought it might be whats the giveaways then ? Least i know where to start now

Yes thats just a sticker but that doesnt mean its not a prodrive. Does it have a prodrive pipe under the intercooler leading to the turbo?

rb5 stu

Prodrive doesnt look any different to a standard wrx.

I didnt think it did to be honest thought the main things were exhaust and suspension not had the cooler of as yet will it say prodrive on the y pipe if it is i guess ?

rb5 stu

The only thing a wrx ppp has extra is a remap, prodrive exhaust and the blue or sometimes red intercooler pipe. You should see it coming out of the bottom of the intercooler towards the turbo. Suspension was the same as standard.

Wrong. RA's do not have rear wipers and they are JDM.

Wrong again. The ECU was changed, the intercooler to turbo hose is blue, the Prodrive e haust, sticker and a certificate. All of which can be removed.

You need to speak to a dealer with your reg and/or chassis number to get the definative answer.

rb5 stu

Thats what I said.

rb5 stu

I think he would know if his car was an ra. I was talking about standard wrxs.

rb5 stu

The ecu wasnt changed, it just had a ecutek map flashed onto it.
