It wasn't anything that minor. They beefed up the transmission slightly in 03, and the 05 sti had better hubs and bearings, which failed regularly in 04. The stock tune detonated noticeably in 04 as well. And the 05 came with a radio, which was a nice thing to have. Mine had a blank plate.
These days, if you buy a turbo Subaru you need to be prepared to get a tune ASAP. The stock tune has issues and leads to ring land failure.
