2003-2005 is the Evo VIII
2006 is the Evo IX
GSR is the trim, such as RS, MR, and GSR (known as just Lancer evolution VIII or IX here in the states).
Also, in 2006 the GSR and MR trims are both available as SE. (Evo IX SE, Evo IX MR SE)
look at the mitsu website am not using the roman numbers am using the letters I X thats what the trim model is called (I-X) not GSR thats japenese with AYC, thats what is has always been called in the states, you have RS, IX, MR, and SE trim levels
03'-05' is the Evo 8 VIII-
06-now Evo 9 IX
