I think your misunderstanding what i was implying....

P.S. New paddle clutch and flywheel in the post. Car should be going into see Gav at Wallace on the 29th to get fitted and alignment done, so with a bit of luck out on the 29th and ready for Aberdeen meet on the Tues, for once!

A-plan will trust me, aslong as you fit their criteria.

A mate of mine has a recently imported TypeR V4 Vltd.
Two things which are possibly not right, can any of you lot help?
Firstly it has no central diff control and secondly it has ABS.
Thoughts please and apologies for busting in on this thread.

Anything else to look at ie: sliding rear calipers or 2 pots, alloy bottom suspension arms etc ? Obviously should not have a red top engine

Bonkers!

Anyway, in my books, its a Type R. If you want to call it an RA, it doesnt really matter. Still a top motor!
Actually, if you look on the Ravensblade website, they have an email address incase you have any model questions. Might be worth a quick email and ask if they can shed any light on it?

The RA has 4 doors and the R has two doors, usually if it's a V-LTD model it will have a roof vent and maybe a plaque on the dash although as far as I know, no STi5 Type R V-LTD had plaques fitted.
