there are actually a couple different vacuum hoses that exist on the STi that do not on a WRX(02-07).

So yes, it should fit but you will need to plug the extra holes on the manifold.

What about the intake manifold? Is the JDM bigger than the USDM?

ok. I was just making sure if it would be an improvement or not on the TR. I hope so, and if not, its red.
