STi RA For Sale £6250
White (of course), roof vent, DCCD and all the usual STi extras.
STi mid level spoiler.
Security film (very dark) to back and rear door glass.
No central locking.
STi carbon strut brace.
Intercooler water spray.
Close ration gearbox.
Car comes with air conditioning and electric windows.
No silly modifications apart from performance back box (quiet and understated), but has an HKS induction kit fitted - plenty of scope with a decat and remap for 310 bhp ++++.
Closed deck block + 5th injector.
Mileage is showing 53,000 (still reading in kilometers + limited to 112 mph).
Gold 17" OZ Superleggas fitted with Bridgstone tyres with plenty of tread left + very very few scuss on the wheels.
MOT until November 2005 + Tax until April 2005.
I bought the car from an importer in Birmingham in early November, and circumstances means it has to be sold (much to my regret).
Car is a 1995 model and therefore has a few car park dings (nothing major for 10 year old vehicle). If it was a mint car I would be asking for more money.
Thatcham Category 1 Immobiliser fitted 17/11/2004 (Installation Certificate for insurance purposes).
Things I had done whilest owned:
16/12/2004 misfire + check engine light problem, so taken to Showells Subaru (Main Dealer) and had:
1). Sensor Knock fitted (£82.55).
2). Air flow meter fitted (£196.64).
3). Sensor oxygen (non-UK) (£147.76).
4). Valve duty solenoid (£167.94).
5). Sensor vacuum EJ20G (£317.76).
ALL THESE PARTS ARE GUARANTEED FOR 3 YEARS
Other service carried out in December:
1). Oil filter (£4.05).
2). Sump plug washer (£1.50).
3). Castrol Magnatec oil (£22.77).
4). Spark plugs (£38.00).
5). Air conditioning radiator (£268.28).
6). Air conditioning regass (£65.00).
Car now runs and pulls beautfully smoothly and with no drama - always run on Optimax (without exception).
Brakes well (new pads and discs) fitted by Importer in November 2004.
No sill skirts, or lower front splitter - a very nice looking car owned by a mature driver + garaged and used at weekends (my fourth Classic Impreza).
Driver's seat has some wear but nothing major.
Please feel free to e-mail me at sretheridge@aol.com (home e-mail address) or ring my mobile 07799-116-778 for any other information.
I have some pictures taken in December if you want them e-mailed to you.
Car is in the Midlands/Shropshire area.
If you are looking for a hard core driver's Impreza this could be the one.
Please no messers or people looking for a test drive if not genuinely interested.

One question, how easy is it to de-restrict?

Thanks for the reply.
I believe the de-restrictor on the earlier Imprezas is mechanical (rather than electrical), and the kit form Graham Goode Racing is about £95.00.
I had this done on my first WRX (1994 Import) and the job took about 1 hour (or so, anyway, it is not a long job for those who are mechanically minded).

You can do it one of 2 ways - either 1.6:1 gearbox on the speedo cable, or with a scoobyECU if the buyer decides to go that route.
STI RA's with closed deck block, DCCD etc are very rare - grandad of the WRC cars
Good luck with the sale, its a good price - market is v. slow at the mo

This is great value for one of the quickest production Impreza's ever made and boy do these things move, bttt for a fellow Ra owner...best of luck with the sale. This is the way to buy the car as the sensor's etc that are changed is a major plus because eventually they would need to be done.

Any more posts like this I will not ler her go
Took her out tonight, and after driving my wife's Rav 4 for a few days, the sheer GRUNT of the STi RA never fails to give me the ******* + a big smile (not big *******).
Thanks for your post.
Car is in the garage under a dust sheet - oh my god it looks so good.
Sell or keep sell or keep sell or keep????????????????????????

Up for Saturday/Sunday.
Only "modifications" from STi RA specification:
Cat 1 alarm
HKS induction kit
Performance back box (lovely sound not too loud just right).
Lokks stunning in white with the 17" OZs + roof vent and no sills and no side skirts.
Very very smooth and blindingly quick, chance to buy a very rare type of Impreza. Not many made in the RA version (STi or WRX).
With a decat + remap you will safely be able run the car at 300 + bhp.
Closed deck block, fifth injector - purist's dream.
Race tuned suspension + STi set up gives stunning road holding to go with the power. Stays completely flat when pushing through the bends.
I have loads of information and papers giving details of the STi RA + lots of other stuff.
Other STi RAs in the Autotrader (only a few) are going for closer to £7,000.
If anyone wants to part exchange + cash I would certainly consider.

Hi James
Really appreciate your comments + a BIG thank you for putting the picture links up for me.
Just been to look at the car in the garage, and if finances allowed I would keep it.
In a few years these will be worth some good money.
Some early Cosworths and Lancia Deltas are fetching serious £ in the Classic Car scene.
Best wishes,
Richard
