Sti Wagon - 1996?

Sti Wagon - 1996?
This might be more appropriate in the muppet room, due to me being a muppet...
My mum has an Impreza Wagon, an Import, 1996
It seems to be a WRX Sti, did these exist or has somebody just put some Sti bits on a WRX?
Is there a way I can check to be 100% sure?
Also, it will be going up for sale and I have no idea what to put it up for...
It has a rusty arch that is currently being fixed, other than that it seems sound to me, faded dash on the passenger side.
I will get pics this weekend to add to this thread.
I will be selling it on here, but I can't just put offers which is a bugger.
Its done 120000km and has a stainless exhaust and good history.
Cheers
Tom

On the strut? That's a bit vague for a muppet like me mate sorry?
The Sti bits I have noticed are
Drivers side wing mirror has an Sti logo stamped into the plastic
Sti badges on the front wings
Pink Subaru badge on the front grill
Sti seats
Kind of stuck now as it's at my mum's house til the weekend but will try and head over for a look

Pop the bonnet and on the drivers side strut top ( i think ) there is a plate with various letters and numbers. One of them will say applied model code and it will start GC8......

Will have larger rear spoilers, STI strut brace Intercooler water spray rather than ABS integral boss and steering wheel. V2 STi wagons are largely WRX with factory STi bits added on so it can be difficult to determine. Also the gearbox code will end B4AA and the engine will be W5PE

Applied Model: GF8B5BD
Engine: EJ20GDW1NE
Transmission: TY752VB3CA
Trim code: 410
Colour code: 406
That's the information I could find
There is an Sti (worn) steering wheel in the car
Couldn't tell if there is water spray etc, no strut brace there, but I guess it could have been sold
OR it could not be an Sti

The pre 96 wagon WRX and STI share the same model code so this is one Subaru where the model code wont exactly tell you what it is.
As mentioned some bits to look for are, sti seats, carbon strut brace, IC spray, larger rear spoilers, sti badged steering wheel, alloy intercooler, red inlet manifold, sti on the facia around the clocks and maybe fog lamps covers.

Just had a look see at pictures on Piston heads. Filtered by 1996 in the Sti section. Looks like you have me on the 7k red line but I still need convincing about the IC spray! Especially on the wagon.

I don't have the car to check those extra details until Thursday...
But the intercooler was black, couldn't tell about the water spray.
There is a larger than normal rear (top) spoiler, with no lower spoiler. But then there is not front spoiler/lip, but again this could've been changed.
