Default ID model...!

Evening all,

now first of yes I have searched, but im still not convinced I know !! seems to be lots of info, almost to much, as a lot of it differs.!
So Im asking nicely for fellow owners help hehe

Im not completley sure i know what model i have this came from when I called insurance saying its a impreza WRX, they asked for sub type, I had no real idea !

So its a M reg, with GC8C48D option code BJ trim 520 as some info !

one odd thing is Ive never seen one with bonnet vents like this ones one way the other 90 degree compared to it, is that factory. ?
Also is has Alloy suspension arms, whihc i "think" is relevant..
any tips muchly appreciated....!!!!

22B bonnet vents (or at least a similar style).

Code is for a normal WRX

As far as I know the early JDM cars had alloy arms (my 93wrx did anyway)

+1 on that.

That bonnet doesn't seem to fit very well.

It looks like the facelift mod gone wrong.

It's the 'C' in GC8C48D
It covers from Sept '94 to Aug '96. Without a closer look i cant be 100% but from what i can see, i would say it's been changed.

Very nice. My initial thought was, a Mini.
