Suspension was similar but I think the V6 STi may have had inverted struts. Brakes were the same at the front (Subaru 4 pot) but the V6 STi (and I think the 2000 WRX)had two pot rears. Turbo was the roller bearing VF28 (or 29?). Not sure if our V6 STi had the R180 rear diff, but certainly the Type RA's had the R180.
I have a VIN tucked away somewhere...will send it to you if I can find it.
Alright, thanks, that would be great
