RRR

This is a Rare WRX Type RA (Race Altered)
The RA variant was designed for group N rallying.
And supports many race speciation parts
Which I have highlighted in the list below
The RA models were also far lighter than their counterparts.
The car on this web site weights 1180 KG that’s, around 110 Kg lighter than a normal WRX.
The engine also differs significantly from normal WRX’s
U.k Subaru’s have 208 BHP, standard Jap spec WRX’s have 240 BHP.
The Type RA’s in standard form however have around 260 BHP

The car for sale has:-
+20Bhp kakimoto exhaust
+8BHP metal sus air filter

So its total is around 290 BHP

This car was timed at Trax 2003 and achieved a 0-60 time of 4.9 seconds.
With a better start I am sure it would do the 0-60 in the claimed 4.5 seconds

wrote the following about the wrx type ra engine ( On the eight paragraph ) :-

“The WrX-RA engine uses a hardened crankshaft and sand-cast, larger water-jacketed heads. It is interesting to note that the RA motors still share connecting rods with the N/A 1800cc motor. The quality is in the N/A motors, it is just put to different use. The 2.0, closed deck, 1995 WRX-RA short block is still the drug of choice in Japan for the "Big Power" motor”
