Default subaru impreza wrx sti jdm

i don't no much about scooby. currently got an evo 7. looking at swapping with an Subaru sti. my question is, someone got a subaru impreza wrx sti jdm. how can i determine it an sti jdm model and not a normal wrx. has i believe what a lot of people do with import car is write wrx on the logbook to save on insurance. he say it got a one wing damaged. how much do these wing cost.
thanks it an 04 plate

STI will have brembo brakes and 6 speed box, these are easy spots.
JDM which is more desirable will have rear wiper.

Take caps lock off for starters.

DCCD is a fearure that allows you to send more or less power to the rear wheels.

Red sweep style defi dials, rear window wiper, Xenon headlamps, for visual differences....

Internal...... higher redline, twin scroll turbo, equal length headers and a few other things

why are you shouting?

and no one does that. Sounds questionable. Once you have a JDM, you dont go backwards.

Sounds about right for a td05 20g with supporting mods, but as said before why change from twin scroll? Any photos of it?

Nobody is stupid enough to switch it, unless he wanted to cash in on a rwnscroll set up when they used to go for £2k or so, sounds like its not a JDM

its not a cheaper option as things like the sump, oil feeds, downpipe, ECU/map etc all need to be changed as well. Any mug that does that to his car dosent deserve a Subaru and I only imagine how badly it has been looked after.

AVOID. Nothing more needs to be said

That's a good clean car from a genuine guy, and it sold recently.

Don't know if it's the same one though.

it has DCCD apparently, so not a bug, unless some moron has fitted it and changed the turbo at the same time! On Subaru Swap Shop, anything is possible
