yep that's the one, every Subaru has that regardless of origin

 

has engine code & your applied model code (build code) which if you didn't have the Build sheet can tell you the same basic info

After some googleing it turns out new subarus the applied codes are on the front passenger door

The cars nz new no vin on other tower it's a Fuji heavy industry's tag so I'm pretty sure its the one your both talking about I'll try to upload a pic if your really interested to see it but the original build sheet indicated it's a spec r

Applied code on the Shock tower will tell all!

 

ID Tag from factory is riveted there

Just a update I think its cause my is not a jdm sti as it has a 2.5 not the 2 but the Id tag doesnt actually have an applied code just a vin

Well the jaycar one works fine on 08 sti and android which is $69. the Ali express version is cheaper.

The software has to work with the car and adaptor as well its a three part combo deal.

 

for $300 you'd better get the tactrix one.

those costly Chinese ones are mostly the low tech skill all in one versions for workshops where learning and playing around is a waste of time and money. 

 

the older pre 98 cars are not obd2 from memory so need different adapters for obd1. 

 

F*** I just realized I now have an iPhone and have to do all this S*** again...

 

@08 sti harry where are you based?

I'm based in chch I'm gonna start with a cheap ali express one If that doesnt work the btssm seems to have pretty good reviews

I have a 08 sti. I'm not looking to tune or anything just want to know what's a good diagnostic tool and where to buy. Just want to be able to read and clear fault codes and that sort of thing
