Nice car.

1000 wrx type RA were released on the japanese market in november 1999.( Non STI)

They came with 6 spoke RAYS mags from factory.

Quoted from "Impreza" by Brian Young.

6 spoke?? I've only ever seen them on an sti / with the sti centre cap

Mine just had the standard 16" wrx/sti wheels..

Awesome! Another v-limited!! ;D what number?

Gonna do anything to it or just keep it stock ?

Nar, to be honest I think he is stoked to have a WRX, doubt he will do anything to it, maybe a Decat, heard that gets abit of power and after 120kms they are probably shagged anyway

get yourself a nice cold air intake downpipe and mayb a exhaust and youl be away laughing.

Nar, cant mod the intake at all or it voids the warranty

yeah pretty much anything is not allowed, you can put in a flat panel filter and a cat back exhaust. Thats it. Nothing from the turbo

not my car man, just my flatmates.

I have to say driving it has somewhat converted me to the GC from the GD shape.... They are so small and light and agile.

I do prefer the stiff and rigid feel of the GD chassis though..

But yeah.. I reckon the GCs still look pretty good even how old the model is and so much lighter as well..
