Default Subaru Impreza Type RA FOR SALE

Hi I’m selling my Subaru Impreza WRX STi Type RA V Limited. 1998
Its number 798 of 1000 built and has only done 34k miles, a very low number for its age. This car has all the usual RA refinements, as well as extra modifications.
The car runs and handles superbly. I have had many great days out in it. Please note that it has not been used on any track days.
It has all previous history; along with receipts etc. 11 months MOT, and has had 2 previous owners.
It has recently had a full engine rebuild and a brand new paddle clutch. The car is currently running with a Gems ECU. The new engine has almost done its first 1000 miles, and will therefore need re-mapping. The car has been restricted whilst it is being run in, as a result; the car has not gone over 4000rpm. With the modifications done it has the potential to run at 360bhp.

Here is a list of some modifications which have been added:-
• Gems ECU (can run on 95ron fuel or 97ron fuel)
• Anti Lag
• Auto Diff Control
• 6 recordable defi gauges
• Defi head up display
• Knock link
• Paddle Clutch (brand new)
• Clifford Concept 600 Alarm
• Front Mount Intercooler
• Full stainless steel BPM exhaust system
• Flow jet water injection
• STi strut braces – to front, back and also underneath (front & back) of car.
• 18” ProDrive wheels. Gold. With Toyo Proxies tyres.
There are probably more I have forgotton to mention - but when I think about them I'll let you know!

Reason for the sale of the car is genuine, as i am currently looking to buy my first house and have to find a cheaper hobby!
If i'm honest the car does need 2 new front tryes and a set of front brake pads, as well as the re-map, so taking this into consideration I am asking around £11500-£12000.
The car has been very well looked after and has had alot of money spent on it, and it will be a shame to see it go.

I am also selling the private registration plate 'S555 VRA'. If anyone wants to make a serious offer please get intouch.

Any queries contact me through here, or give me a call on my mobile 07766 138 574.

Thanks alot, Dean.

Here are some photos:

Hi mate,

Who did the engine rebuild and what was the cause of the previous engine failure?
Thanks.
