Thanks for the pics!
An internet search says that the rack from a 2001 STI interchanges with the following:
1998-2001 Subaru Impreza interchages with:
* 1998-1998: L; 4Cyl 2.2L GAS, FI, VIN "4", EJ22EZ;
* 1998-1998: Outback; 4Cyl 2.2L GAS, FI, VIN "4", EJ22EZ;
* 1998-1998: RS; 4Cyl 2.5L GAS, FI, VIN "6", EJ25D;
* 1999-1999: L; 4Cyl 2.2L GAS, FI, EJ223;
* 1999-1999: Outback; 4Cyl 2.2L GAS, FI, EJ223;
* 1999-1999: RS; 4Cyl 2.5L GAS, FI, EJ253;
* 1999-2001: L; 4Cyl 2.2L GAS, FI, VIN "4", EJ222;
* 1999-2001: Outback; 4Cyl 2.2L GAS, FI, VIN "4", EJ222;
* 2000-2000: RS; 4Cyl 2.5L GAS, FI, VIN "6", EJ251;
* 2001-2001: RS; 4Cyl 2.5L GAS, FI, EJ251;
Just trying to clear up the confusion on which racks will work... This list could be wrong, but at least it's a start...
Based on everyone's experience with the Subaru racks, does this list represent the different racks that have been used?
