Devendra Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 EJ204 engine. chassis code bl5 That's helpful, thanks ! I see all Subaru VIN starting from JF1, which I cannot see on this plate. The 14 digit or 17 digit will be what in this case, please advise. Regds, Dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, extrapolating from your existing data plate, your USDM VIN would be JF1BL226454004449 - JF1 (Japanese manufacture) BL (Legacy/Sedan) 2 (2 liter - taken from the Imprezza VINs) 2 (2.5i Limited [guessing from the dual exhaust] or 1 for base i model) 6 (restraint types) 4 (check digit/random number or X) 5 (2005 model) 4 (5EAT Slushbox/7 if 4EAT) 004449 (Build number) SC 1994 Legacy MI 2008 Legacy GT specB 2023 Crosstrek Limited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
