So I dropped my car off today to have the gearbox repaired (2005 WRX) and my mechanic gave me a loaner car! Great says I, a fookin micra or something.... But no! This is what he gave me and im in love!!!
Very nice Now stay off the lawn with this 1
is this your second rebuild on the gearbox you Got it done 2 weeks ago did the first one let go again or what
Ha Ha. No, Rebuild was done a few weeks ago. Just fitting now. I had an old spare box in the car in the mean time....
Anyone have a link to the original spec of the car? What exactly is its title etc.... And BHP, 0-60mph times etc.... Love to know more about it.
Love that car. Wasnt sure did he still have it or not.
Thats a MY97 WRX Type RA STi Version 3 V-Limited. Factory @ 280bhp should have DCCD etc.
It should have a model code GC8D4DD.
Was very near close to buying it one time but held out for the V2 i have now for the McRae seats etc.
Would love to get a pic of it with my own one.
Oh right. My man only has it about 6 months.... No DCCD in it though....
DCCD was an option but thought most of them had it.
Does he have a type r aswell?
Ya, he has a 2000 reg blue type r. Just finished rebuilding it from scratch. Some car now....
I checked the model code there, its GC8D4ED
V3 Sti V-Limited. Had options of DCCD and different exhaust etc from factory. I think. I didn't think they were Limted by 555. I thought that was 95 V2 and came in GC and GF.
Ok so she isnt a type RA. Wouldnt know him directly but a buddy does so must get over and have a look at those cars, nice collection.
Ya they were limited as they won the '96 manufacturer's title.
Gorgeous car, was that for sale recently enough
