Default 2003-2007 WRX JDM import

Hi,

We are looking at importing a 2003-2007 JDM WRX. I have looked at a few examples and found a few different variants such as the 03/04 WRX V Limited and the 2005 WRX WR Limited. Is there much difference between these models?
Am I right in thinking that all newage JDM WRX models have AVCS and a better TD04 than UK models? Are there any other mechanical differences such as gearing etc?

Is the Hawkeye JDM WRX 2.0 mechanically the same as the blobeye JDM WRX?

thanks

I have taken a deposit on mine.

Thanks, that looks like a tidy car. Trying to source one in white hopefully, make a change from the usual blue/black

Think I read it mentioned once but does the JDM WRX also have an 8,000rpm redline?
