    Maybe Dean over on type-ra.com can shed some more light on it https://www.type-ra.com/subaru-impreza-my94-wrx-sti-version/?sfw=pass1626333081

    Thank you so much, its the most confusing car I have owned to figure out. It has all the correct internals of an STI, light weight bonnet etc. and has been upgraded to chuck out 297hp. But has the wrong option option code as per the link and no sign of a plaque except for two indentation for it but never been drilled out to rivet. Will stay in the garage I think till I get the time to restore it as has some funny flaws like it would have been bright orange given the colour when opening the doors but currently a grey with really bad orange peel and bits of the V2 styling. But when I had it on the road was an enjoyable car to drive.

    hi any one goin to oulton park tunerfest
  9. Geekfest84
    Thanks! Interesting to know, altho I'm going to have to use Google translate I think 😂👍 might try learning Japanese for a challenge though. The ej205 seems pretty well regarded on various forums, at least compared to the ej25. Other than running it on premium fuel and making sure the cambelt has been changed, is there anything I need to be wary of for this particular engine? And thanks again for your help! 👍😎

    Engine codes for EJ205 models
  11. Geekfest84
    Thank you! That's the only engine code that I can find listed for the exiga GT. Just wondered what it meant. I work in the motor trade, and ironically enough at a motor factors, but can't seem to find much for the exiga on the systems yet. Guess it's still quite a new import to have over here. Alphard's and elgrands are listed, I assume exigas will be too soon enough.

    The OEM software can be found on the web if you look or pay. There are also links to on-line catalogues.... eg. https://jp-carparts.com/subaru/cartypelist.php?maker=subaru&car_baseid=F25000 Meaning of Engine Code EJ - 4 cyl boxer 20 - 2Ltr 5 - MFI Turbo (if 7 - MFI High Power Turbo - as used in STI's) H - Japanese Exhaust regulations B - 5AT K - Minor change - Revision "B" (MY10) ME - Detailed specifications. Used when ordering parts. For details, refer to the parts catalog.

    The sti would be nice, altho I imagine it'd demand a hefty price premium! I don't think the standard gt's are badly priced for what they are to be fair? Is that dealer software then, or can anybody use it? Random question, what does this engine code mean? EJ205HBKME. I know the ej205 is reference to the ej20 type of engine, and the 5 means it is the 225ps Jap version I think....? I'm not sure! But I take it this engine is generally a decent unit? Thanks again 👍
  14. The Don
    This would be the one to have (if one ever comes up) as it has all the STI suspension parts https://www.sti.jp/en/completecar/heritage/cardetail/2009/exiga-20gt/
  15. The Don
    Not a website - Subaru JDM Parts Database software
  16. Geekfest84
    From what I can tell there is really only one GT model people have imported, sometimes with a few extras fitted? What website have you shown above? I've not seen that one before. Worcester road have a couple, and I think Jap auto agent has one, and so does another dealer whose name I can't remember right now 🤦 they seem good value compared to an Alphard, which was my other choice. I don't want another elgrand 😂
  17. The Don
    Really depends on the Dealer. Common parts should be available from a number of outlets Plenty of routes for ordering parts direct from Japan. Built between 2008 and 2018. 5AT automatic box Which year and GT model is it?? https://www.theparking-cars.co.uk/used-cars/subaru-exiga.html Worcester Road Motors Ltd seem to have a large stock of them 😉
  18. Geekfest84
    Thank you! 👍 I've seen those two reviews, they seem to like it. I need a seven seater for the family car and like my Jap imports. Never had a Subaru but always wanted one growing up, so thought the exiga is a decent compromise kinda thing. Do you know if Subaru dealers are ok ordering parts for imports if needs be? I used to have a nissan elgrand, and nissan dealers were not very helpful when I needed to order dealer only parts. Because it was a Jap Import they weren't interested in the slightest. Whereas a friend of mine has a Toyota Alphard, and dealers are always willing to help him if he needs a certain dealer only part, they'll gladly order one from Japan. Thanks again 👍

  21. Geekfest84
    Hi all! I've just joined, looking at buying a Subaru exiga (the GT model though, so the ej205)...is one of those "allowed" in here as such? I can't seem to find out much about them! This forum looks awesome, so thought I'd join to ask if anyone knows more anything them 👍😊 Thanks Ian 👍😎
