Your refering to the Bugeye shape then.

I have a MY02 Sti and as far as I can remember these are the main differences.

1) 6 speed box
2) variable valve engine with larger turbo, 260hp as standard
3) uprated suspension
4) water spray thingy
5) no fog lamps
6) only available in 4 doors

I'm sure other people can entend on this, but this is all that comes to mind at the moment.

Hope this helps
Gareth

Don't forget the vastly superior Brembo brakes on the Sti....

Strut braces, blueprinted engine, low friction pistons, different diffs, 'snazzy' interior.

The Stis are more 'trick' in every area really. The only reason they don't feel vastly superior to the UK cars out of the box is because over here they are limited to a naff 260bhp, whereas the Japs get 300+. This can be dealt with however.....
