Tamiya Mica Blue might be a hard one to replicate because of the size of the metallica (mica) flakes in the paint.
I've personally yet to find an auto store paint that has a similar small size metallic flake to those found in Tamiya Paints.
As for specific colour codes; without meaning any offence, but google does wonders when you type in something like:
***** color codes (replace ***** with manufacturer)

I think your best bet is to get either (official Subaru codes, NOT PPG) codes;
555 Blue 53C
Sonic Blue 74F
Deep Blue Mica 95H
or the official WRC color
WR Blue 02C
EDIT: I found this also....
Suzuki official color code #: YC2 Candy Grand Blue Telefonica 4997 1043
This is the exact Telefonica blue color, because before Honda Telefonica sponsored Suzuki ...:naughty:
Hope this helps you out!
