Import vin numbers
2 door import is one of only 2 cars. a type R or 22b, wont be a 22b (trust me you;d know if you had one) so can tell you 100% it will be a Type R. Sounds like its be registered wrong at the DVLA, which isnt uncommon. get some pics up :)

Upgrading to STI components
Hawk onwards 5 speed is considerably stronger so shouldn't be an issue unless your ham fisted with it, i ran 390/420 on one for 15 months no issue and know a few others who have been well over 400.

Gobstopper 1 & 2
you cant really compare year to year, gobstoppers time varied by over a second between the years it won it, the slower time being the latest time. as far as cost i can tell you there is way more than 500k in each of them 😉

Shocks knocking
thats a bodge fix anyway, is just covers the noise, not fix the problem. look at a decent set of aftermarket either shocks or coilovers

Unmolested 2003 Wrx 75k
With a nocking engine and being stood for many years wont be worth huge amounts im afraid 😞 Being a wrx will only be 4-5k at most even in top condition. Engine your looking at a 3-4k bill, plus a car standing for years wont have done anything for the seals and other rubber components. Even though it has unused tyres i expect it will need a new set anyway unless they went on recently? I'd say anything over £1500 and your doing well.
