Theoretically it can prove abusive driving in the 04 and 05 STi. When an error code is generated and you take it to the dealer they use the Subaru Select Monitor which captures freeze frame data. They can see what MPH and RPM you were at when the CEL occured and this information is stored in non-volatile memory (ie - you can't erase it by clearning the code or unplugging the battery).
Can you clear it yourself? Yes... but not with any standard OBD-II scanner, you must get the Subaru Select Monitor which is about $7000
