the s202 is based on a bug eye spec c, that is why it has the roof vent, no airbags, no side skirts etc, and is also quite a bit lighter than a normal sti.
the s203 is based on the standard on a standard my05 jdm sti. the s204 is based on a base spec jdm my06 sti, that it is why the body does not have the mounts for the roof vane (the spoiler at the top of the back window). It is not lightened like a true spec c.

An XY Falcon 500 has the same body shell as a GTHO, but just because you stick HO running gear in a Falcon does not make it a GTHO.....a fake is a fake is a fake & I for one would be embarrassed to call a rebodied GX an S202 or whatever.

I think you don't realise that an S202 is not an XY GTHO falcon.. it is a performance variant of a modern, mass produced Japanese car.
What is with everyone thinking that S-series Subaru's are built by hand in mystical factories run by little blue magical Japanese Elves? The car can be bought currently, untouched and unbastardised, for 30k or less in Japan. Its not like your transplanting a Ferrari F40 into an Alfa 156... who gives a shit! |

Whilst I'm with Stace, at the time the GTHO was released it was also a performance variant of a modern mass produced car, albeit an australian one.
You would not believe the amount of money that some people will part with for genuine "numbers matching" cars.

Would you call a Oz delivered lancer GLXi with a evo conversion a real Evo?
I think not and the same goes for any Subaru, Nissan etc etc conversion but it also doesn't matter what it really is as long as you enjoy the car and your happy with it.

I'd be embarrassed buying/building a performance car only to brag about how good it is, yet sit collecting dust. Action's speak louder than words.
