Default Stunning STI 5 Type RA WRC Limited Edition

Stunning Subaru Impreza STI 5 Type RA WRC Limited Edition, no 0856/1000. 2000, W reg, 40k miles. This car has been very well modified to make a fantastic fast road/ track car.



The STI5 RA WRC Ltd Edition is regarded by many as possibly the best factory Impreza ever built in terms of handling ability. The lightweight RA body combined with a few nice to have’s – Climate control and Electric windows & mirrors result in a brilliant car as standard. With the quality standard of modifications to this car, the level is pushed much further as to what this car can do.

Recent work undertaken
2 litre engine, rebuilt after big end failure with the following: -
STI9 Tuftrided crank (cross drilled with better oilways)
Uprated H-Section con rods
Uprated Mahle Pistons
ACL Race bearings (Main and big ends)
New modified Oil Pump
New Modine
ARP Head studs
This engine is capable of running 450bhp+ with the right supporting mods.

Turbo – this is yet to be decided and can be negotiated in the deal. Currently has a Turbo Dynamics MD191 (370bhp @1.5 bar), but after the engine is run-in I will be upgrading. As said – happy to discuss this with potential buyers..

Other mods

ECU – GEMS Motorsport – has anti lag functionality and switch for running 95 ron unleaded when needed.
FMIC – HKS
Fuelling – SX Fuel pump, filter and regulator – braided hoses, etc
Injectors – Apexi 550cc
Headers – 4-2-1 Equal Length from Powerstation
Induction – HKS Super Power Flow
Exhaust – Group N downpipe – 3” (decat), straight through centre and Scoobysport back box
Uprated Exedy Organic Clutch with lightened flywheel
Lightweight RCM Pulleys

Suspension – LEDA B adjustable coilovers (ride height and damping) with linear & progressive tender springs – just like the rally cars have
Top mounts – Cusco castor adjustable up front and solid rear top mounts
Front & rear strut braces
Bigger anti roll bars
Poly bushes all round
5-point under body brace
Camber bolts, anti lift kit, etc
Geometry set up by Powerstation

Brakes – AP Racing 330mm 4-pots with Pagid RS 4-2 pads up front
Rear – standard 2 pots

Interior – Gauges – 4 HKS Mechanical gauges in pod – Oil Pressure, Oil Temp, Turbo Boost and Exhaust Gas Temp
STI 9 leather steering wheel
Wheels – Speedline GT1 Lites in Gold with Toyo T1Rs – 215/35/18s

Track Wheels/ Tyres – Volks Racing Te37s with Dunlop D01Js – tyres seen less than 1000 miles (not included in sale price below – by separate negotiation only) - 1st refusal to buyer of this car - so not interested in offers for these yet.

This car has been modified to perform on the road and track. With the adjustable damping on the suspension, it can be toned down to make comfortable on the road and turned up to make race hard on the track. With a set of sticky tyres, this car will excel on the track, beyond most others.

If you are interested in competing in the likes of Scooby Shootout, TOTB, Time Attack or your local hill climb/ sprint – then this car has great potential to do well in all of these, and will make an absolute amazing car to drive to the Nurburgring and put in blisteringly quick laps.

Currently, the engine is being rebuilt, and will be fully run-in and checked prior to sale - so the spec above is the current plan - but could be changed if you want by negotiation. The car has 40k miles on the clock, which are believed to be genuine and will have 12 months MOT. Fastidiously maintained by Len at Subaru 4 You since I have owned it and there is a whole load of info/ receipts from previous owners. The general excellent condition is a reflection on that.

Looking for offers around £14k. I know you can buy newer cars for this money, but this is a special car – a limited edition and one of the best ever produced – just now so much better than original spec. This is a real Drivers car – not a show & shine car – where it would be completely wasted.

I'm selling due to starting my own business and need a break from the whole Subaru scene - but I will be back and I would love the option to buy this car back in the future

If you’re interested please call Terry on 07967 447087.

Do you have any pics of the inside?
Is this a drivable car on the road or is it more setup for track all the time.

Whats your insurance like

Mate this car is fantastic on the road. With the adjustable coilovers it can be firmed up for the track and toed down for the road. It has been my every day car It's firm - but compliant - if you know what I mean.

Insurance costs me £690 per year fully comp protected with all mods declared - I was 33 when I took out the policy.

Here's some more pics for ya..





Cheers

Terry

I've put my thoughts on the price in the original post - obviously open to negotiation.
