Hey guys just a quick question regarding all your GT's...

Are they Turbo?? Here in Australia and also in Japan GT denotes turbo but a lot of you guys call your cars GT and they have the turbo bonnet but are N/A??

Ah I see. Thanks for clearing that up!

So all BD/BG and BE/BH were N/A but still came with a turbo bonnet??

BD/BG's came with a turbo hood but BE/BH's did not not. Though some have out baha turbo hoods on their BE/BH's

I noticed that for first generation Imprezas and second generation Legacys in the US the models with the 2.5l engines got the hoodscoops. (ie: GT, Outback, 2.5RS, Outback Sport)

This is something that has always confused me. Especially in the mid 90s, Japanese car makers didn't release their best models over here. Even the 1st gen Legacy turbo used a lower output version than what was available elsewhere. And even now, we tend to get dumbed down versions of their best models.

sorry, I meant first gen outback LEGACY, first year was scoop-less.
