    I am not sure where NCZ1 is getting his,I can put the VIN in the Japanese Subaru parts catalog. A few of those lines from what he copies-pastes are redundant, so here are the important bits out of the program:

    Awesome thanks I just bought it but here in Okinawa when you buy a vehicle it takes a week to pick it up plus it’s a Japanese holiday so I won’t get it till the end of the month . I was hoping it was FI but no big deal

    If it is not Supercharged (which are all EFI), all trucks of this generation are carbed. The Vans went EFI in 1996, but trucks did not go EFI until the next generation (1998-2012)

    I see from what I read online it said FI was introduced in 1995 but wasn’t specific so I took that as all were FI it would have been nice to snag those 6 extra ponies lol

    Correct, but only on the Van though. It was in late 1995, so I just usually round up to 1996.

    Hello Everyone! I'm looking to find out everything about my Subaru Sambar. I found the frame plate. There is also a VIN already associated to it in my state. However, it came up as a 2000 model, and I know that's not right. I only got a bill of sale with it, no title, so I want to make sure I get the correct information to the DMV so I can get this baby out on the road! Any help would be great! Thanks in advance!
