Default Damn Subaru Parts Dept. - we need a chassis number!!

I simply want a couple of sets of inlet manifold gaskets for my classic impreza lump.

its a 96 RA engine in a 98 WRX shell, i have fitted some spacers and want two sets of gaskets for either side of the spacers before i put my Phase 1 inlet manifold back onto the lump.

But, Subaru wont even entertain ordering me some untill i can supply them with a chassi number.

I know the ones i need, they just wont help

now i have had my rant, is there anywhere else i can get them from as they have pi$$ed me off now i'm off elsewhere.

Cheers
Chris.

Get a parts CD then just give them the numbers its easier that way cos the muppets cant even drive there own systems.

Constitution Motors (Subaru) in Norwich not only source import parts
for you but have their own Japanese parts CD so they can look up UK
equivalent parts with your Japanese VIN number, although it takes a
little time. 01603 414623 ask for Sam. They will post small parts
for you on request although if you're not local it might be worth
seeing what they can do.

Can I echo the suggestion to give Constitution a call.. Sam (and Ben before he left) are both on the ball I've never had any issues getting parts from them, although I am local enough just to pop in.
