Blobeye: Is it JDM or UK?
Hi to everyone 
Just bought myself a nice and clean 05 sti.
Equipped with DCCD and Waterspray.
But the VIN confuses me... I checked FAST and so on but couldnt figure out, if it´s a JDM or UK model.
VIN: 1GDBKH35G04xxxx
Engine Type: EJ207NW7CR
Apploed Model: GDBEKEH
What would you say? Is this a JDM model?
The speedo is kinda irritating because the redline starts at 6200, like in an UK model...

Would appreciate your help :/

I'll go through the givaways 
It has S U B A R U on the back, JDM's dont.
Its redline is just over 7k, a JDM is 8k
Its in MPH with KMH inner, a JDM will be converted from KMH so will read (normally though there are exceptions) 180 (or 240) and wont have an inner reading.
The clocks are the wrong colour (red on a JDM).
It doesnt have a rear wiper.
Stalks are on the opposite side on a JDM.
JDM's have both auto and manual ic spray buttons
Plenty more but that will do for now

Ouch... Thanks Tony! Think i was a little bit over-exited 
Will register it hopefully 1-2 weeks
It´s a very mint car! Maybe will find the previous owner here

Shame on me ;-)
Well now it´s my second UK car. First was a MKIV Supra. Now a scoobie.
Looking forward to a long driving pleasure with my new scooby

Looks like a nice example.
The widetrack blob is surely the best UK Newage.
What is different about the JDM's that enables them to run a much higher rev limit?
I know the later JDMs run twin scrolls, but the earlier models all ran single scroll turbos with UEL manifolds, so it can't be just that. Are there big differences in the heads perhaps? Or is it just emissions / reliability requirements in the UK models?
