Google comes with endless possibilities.

Then theirs TCKWP304 for earlier USDM WRXs which is pretty cheap to

 

Yes the site says the top one for my JDM but if i can save some money i might as well try right.

Why not contact Kris at Rising Sun, give him your VIN and he'll sort you out with Genuine timing belt kits at probably the same price if not a little cheaper than the Gates kits.
