I don't really know much about the changes between different versions...
The hoses are these:

VENAIR : Tubos Silicona y kits Tuning
They are for STI V3 & V4 97/98. My car is from 1997, but I believe it corresponds to a MY96. This is the picture of the engine:

Ok, so I have to look at V1 and V2.
Yes, but check the price of the ones I put before...

Well my advice is don't get Venair. Their quality is ****. I've used Samco and SFS before and their quality is about as good as you can get. I've used Autobahn 88 hoses from the Far East and they are not too bad, considering how cheap they were.
And I've also tried Venair for a couple of short hose joiners and they were more like rubber than silicone, the reinforcement layers were visible on the surface and when I complained they got abusive and made out like their product was the best in the world and I didn't know what I was talking about.

Well, I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised by the price of the Autobahn stuff. I wouldn't touch Venair however cheap it was, and the worst thing is they price their stuff up on a par with Samco and SFS for individual pieces.
