Hi,

Have a read here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subaru_Impreza_WRX_STI

Wrx - non brembo, smaller turbo, smaller intercooler, lesser power, handling and performance

Sti - brembo, bigger turbo, bigger intercooler, more power, handling and performance

S204 refer to Version 9 subaru "S" series - 18 wheel, bigger turbo, carbon fibre seats... even more power!!!

WRX is named WRX only

STI is named WRX STI

Heavy mod go for WRX STI...

Genuine STI - U can check engine no and chasis no.

i try to find u the no. later (i post later)....

Before buy the car...send to a subaru speacilist for check up....if not u regret buying a bad car...
