ive got a '95 wrx type RA
and been trying to figure out what its really worth. as ive had a good few people with different views on value etc
im not very clued up on impreza's this is the second ive owned first was a wagon that i never did anything with as i didnt own it long
so yea please dont shoot me down in flames as im new to the scene

 

Anywhere from £100 to £20000.

Gonna need a few more details to give you a value chap.

 

excuse the drawn on number plate some retarded prvious owner did that i haven't got round to getting it off yet

87.809kms
Tubular exhaust manifold
3' exhaust system
Hks mushroom filter
Autobahn88 front mount intercooler
Dump valve
exedy hyper single 6 puk clutch and flywheel
cusco coilovers
cusco pillow ball adjustable top mounts
Cusco undercar x brace
front and rear strut braces
momo steering wheel
greddy turbo timer
blitz sbc boost controller
twist button hand brake
boost gauge
air fuel ratio gauge
17" hijoin alloys from japan

 

has it been mapped? if so-who by?

 

ive got no idea if its been mapped or not, wasn't told about it by the old owner but he wasnt clued up about them either. a garage owned it previously to him tho so it possibly could have been. there are signs of alot more electronic devices that was in the car before that have been removed but couldnt say what was there before

 

Minus 1k for the felt pen number plate at front

 

ive just found the previous owner on facebook he is from bmstyling in waltham cross so going to get abit more info about the car now if he replies

 

if it doesn't come off it will be resprayed

 

So what's the score then, have you come on here to sell it? Or seeing what it's worth, so you can sell it?
Or are you keeping it but just want to know how much it's worth?

 

just really want to know what its worth
having my mate come to give me a price on spraying the roof and the rear quarter as there are 2 scratches on the car so want to get them done, and most likely have the front bumper sprayed over at the same time to.
then it will be stored away again so it stays in the condition it is

 

Two things. Get rid of the pen number plate lol and sell me the drivers side vent please

 

lol as above its getting sprayed soon
and no

 

I thought the RA had a rear window wiper?

 

i would spend the money on having a health check done 1st and maybe a map if needed

 

No rear wiper on an RA, lucky that they came with front ones lol

 

didnt think jap motors had rear wipers
and the engine is fine ive had it apart and put new headgaskets in it.

 

Appologies

 

oh thats ok then............

 

UMMMMMMMMMMM, Interesting.

 

ok il rephrase that ive had the engine apart to check it and put new gaskets in it and all seemed fine.

running wise yea get what your saying its had things done to it so really should have a map put on it if it hasnt been done.
im near milton keynes and not sure where would be able to give it a check over running wise so if anyone has a idea then please let me know

 

It's an RA but with bit's added. A purest would point out that it's got side skirts, rear hockey sticks, rear tints, rear spoiler and a front bumper splitter fitted, the door handles and mirrors have been painted but RA's had none of those features. The whole premise was a lightweight (1140Kgs) Race Altered car with a short ratio gearbox pushing out 260 bhp in that MY.

Do you have any history at all as there is considerable modding but no back up information.
Judging by the rust around the strut brace nuts the engine bay is probably buzzing.

Price will be what someone will pay but the car is not presented in a good way.

I have an un-modded WRX RA on a P plate with 68000 kms on the clock. Here's the ad.

I did not pay the full asking price but it was close.

 

I'd probs say you'd get around £2k for it tbh.
And dont take this the wrong way but in my personal opinion a Type RA should not look like that!

 

The cars probably worth a couple of grand in answer to your question.

 

or 6.5k as per ad on Subaru swop shop

 

LOL..... not worth even half that unfortunately. Its just another poorly modified import, just a shame this one is an RA.
Theres a mint one with 26K miles on the clock for sale on ebay for £5490 which is still a little too much imo.

 

looks like he wont be selling any time soon then

 

I bet he thinks its running 400bhp as well.......lol.......

 

Did I read that right?......This car is advertised for 6.5k on mong shop?

 

Yea, worth every penny Jay hey

 

A nice good condition RA in standard form is very desirable but as others have mentioned this has been substantially altered and not for the better.

I would advise trying to revert back to how it is supposed to look as the mods done to it devalue it a touch. Research RA's and get some gen on them.

A health check is essential. And generally get more clued up on impreza's. Just before I bought mine I signed up to this forum and just kept looking through various posts, and learnt a lot of useful information.

A general check over by an impreza specialist will be worth it's weight in gold, he can advise you on condition and what needs addressing first. The mapping I expect is right at the top of the list to get checked out.

Have fun

Don't ruin it.
