Imported from where? Am I right. In saying that prodrives factory is in banbury UK? So someone exported it then imported it? Lol

- not prodrive - only some uk cars are prodrive - this is a jap import
- stickers are not standard - they did put stickers on the 555 but this is a wrx v limited by the looks of it.
- bhp is quoted at wheels, I think he means flywheel as 330 at the wheels is mental.
-"the EJ20 engine runs 278bhp as factory standard" - not until 1997 on on the facelift
- its not a sti - it has seats that look like sti seats but this is becuase its a limited edition to celabrate the 1995 world championship (the bit he got right) which had these type seats
- what is a v4 ecu?
-"Compomotive Graphite alloys which are less than a year old" - they look older than that!


The antenna moved to the back quater on on the c series cars(i think) (just before facelift)
