Not in massive rush to sell, but I need a change sometime soon.
Import Impreza STi6 RA Limited, year 2000, the light-weight one with rear-biased power and adjustable centre diff, with roof vent, elec windows and aircon, plus blue Alacantara seats and dash surround.
Owned by me for last 4 years, known to various folk here on the forum, 72.5k miles, new MoT. Forged engine rebuild 14k miles ago, with Mahle pistons, Manley rods, cometic gaskets, ARP headstuds and ACL race bearings. I'm responsible for most of the spec (implemented by Zen Performance, Adgespeed and Fast Eddy) and my idea was to build the best possible real-world classic for the road, ie great suspension, strong brakes, really usable power and subtle noise.
Sensible mods for fast road work:
Stock springs and single-adjustable Ohlins dampers (recently rebuilt), Whiteline ARBs, Whiteline adj rear arms, recent geometry. Rear strut brace, front carbon fibre strut brace (standard item) and front underbody 4-point brace.
AP 4-pots, newish AP disks and custom bells at front. Standard 2-pots at rear, newish standard Subaru vented disks. Pads are Alyn's best recommendation (can't remember which right now) which have great bite from cold but work well on track too.
Choice of spotless genuine bronze Rays TE37 17" wheels with RE070 tyres or silver Rota 17" PFF7 replicas fitted with the excellent Federal RS-R tyres.
Engine - although it's forged I haven't gone mad, it was last dyno'd at 360 but should be around 380bhp now. Apexi PFC recently mapped by Paul at Zen, with Apexi AVC-R boost controller.
K&N 57i air filter
Oversize silicone inlet pipe
Lateral Performance MD321H turbo
Hybrid front mount intercooler
Power Enterprises 550 injectors
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
Fuelab adj pressure regulator
PFR7b plugs
Breathers to RCM catch-tank with return to sump
Cosworth baffle plate above sump
Lightweight pulleys
Harvey-ported standard headers and matched up-pipe
3" open-neck wrapped decat downpipe
3" Revolution full system (nice, it's the quietest 3" on the market)
Oil cooler
Samco blue hoses
Millers CFS 10w60 oil
Gearbox is standard 5spd with the longer 5th, in good order with recent Exedy single plate uprated organic clutch and 6kg Exedy flywheel.
Reverse bonnet vent plus original scoop
P1 front lip, blue colour-matched 'wedges', clear indicators and repeaters
High-level spoiler, with optional plain bootlid with BMW-type lip
Interior has Alpine CD radio with Infinity Kappa speakers, boost/oil pressure/oil temp/egt stepper gauges, Innovate permanent wideband gauge plus customisable readout on the AVC-R display. UK-spec folding rear seat currently fitted, which can be swapped out in 10mins for the original (JDM) fixed rear seat. Blue logo'd mat set plus original black mats.
Bad bits - both rear arches have slight bubbling just at the rear. Was thinking of going wide-arch, but that's a possible project for the next owner.
Ongoing project - under-bonnet heat management, with turbo blanket fitted so far plus headers/downpipe lagged ith DEI. Have materials for FMIC pipework lagging, boxing-off the airfilter and patching up the headers/downpipe lagging.

Impreza STi6 RA Limited for sale
Yeah, it is Andy. The market on here for a car like that (the spec etc) means that the audience of potential customers is really limited.
A wonderful car though. Best of luck with the same
