Yes it's a Subaru XT. But it's a special one & I need a bit more for the point...

I think this conversion was done by ASC and called the XT-C.  The photo was taken in Australia at a motor show.

That's not the info I have... It's a Japanese domestic device

That's the one! One of a pair of show Alcyones on Subaru's stand at Tokyo in the 1980s

I had this one cataloged as: Stardust Custom Fuji Heavy Industry / Subaru Alcyone, customized by Yoshiyuki Konishi.

Did Konishi work for "Ficce"?

Shown at the 1987 Tokyo Motor Show on Subaru's stand, the Ficce Special was indeed designed by Yoshiyuki Konishi. I've not come across the 'Stardust' reference before...
