Theyre both the same and yes you can:
GC8 2000cc Impreza saloon
C The model year identifier; Subaru made 2 C-Series car just to confuse us 1995 and 1996*
4 The number of doors
8D WRX
7D WRX Type-RA
ED STI
DD STI Type-RA
The 1995 STI Type-RA was altered from a production WRX -Type-RA and it shares its AMN: GC8C47D
The 1996 STI2 Type-RA was a series production car and as such, it has its own unique AMN: GC8C4DD
Simon
* refers to the model year which is built between September and August usually, so a MY96 car may have been built in September/October 1995
Series-A MY93
Series-B MY94
Series-C MY95
Series-C MY96 AKA Series-C2
Series-D MY97
Series-E MY98 etc

They are not the same car the 95 sti ra is a modified wrx ra so shares the amn (GC8C47D), where as the 96 sti ra is a full production model and has its own amn (GC8C4DD).
Power wise the 96 sti ra has 275ps ans the 95 sti ra also has 275ps

Sorry Simon - i appreciate that you have a lot of info on the plethora of models that abound 
Guys - listen to GC8! He knows of what he speaks, unlike most of the disinformation and bull**** on here.

Dave; the reason that I referred to the power of a standard Type-RA was because you referred to the car as a 'Type-RA'. Had you referred to the car correctly as an STI Type-RA then that wouldnt have come about.

Like i said, those that have got them say STI RA, everyone else says RA. RAs are cack anyway - keepfit windows and i could lighten an STI more by having a dump.
