That the stuff! What boost do u run her at mate?

 

[m7gsr]

On one of the tags in engine bay (passenger side if I remember right),will show as GF8D5ED if it is a version 3 STi. If earlier, it will be same code as a wrx (GF8D58D). Easier to know which model in 4 door cars.

Going by the pics in the ad, looks like a version 3.

Version 3 didn't have the ICS (water spray). Check for the red paint on inlet manifold (this can be done on wrx's too so be careful). Should have carbon sti strut brace, quickshift gears, carbon speedo face, quick rack steering, 4 pot front brakes, lightweight bonnet. Hope this helps.

Saw your other post asking about boost pressure (had to rush out so couldn't post on it). Standard boost is 0.8 bar and they shouldn't really go above 1 bar. Personally I wouldn't even go over 0.9 on them!! Hope this helps

Get it cheap up the boost to around 2 bar and hope for the best I say

When u gettin another Evo apps come on u no u want to lol

 

[sponners]

iirc should also have sti badge on the steering wheel and clear and red rear lights.

not sure about the wagons but this one has a facelift bonnet and pre-facelift bumber? not sure if that is correct.

check the number off the bulkhead and you can then check it against this -

1.Series code G=Impreza S=Forester B=Legacy etc.
2.Body type F=Wagon C=Sedan
3.Engine type 8=2.0L Turbo
4.Year code A=MY93 B=MY94 C=MY95&96 D=MY97 (facelift) E=MY98 F=MY99 G=MY00
5.Number of doors 2=2 door coupe 4=4 door saloon 5=5 door wagon/hatch
6.Model type 8=WRX 7=RA type E=Sti D=Sti Type R & RA
7.Transmission D=5 Speed Manual AWD P=4 Speed Automatic AWD
