Yes mate its on ebay from japancarsdirect. Thats why i posted as didnt want to buy a lemon that isnt what its supposed to be,ive posted on ra forum but no reply yet.
Jayallen should it have side skirts ? It has colour coded skirts and front splitter and does have the wrx sticker on boot,splitter could have been fitted aftermarket as with skirts but if you know any of these answers id be greatfull mate,thankou,carl.

The engine codes are the most important thing! There's about 10 different ones for ra's v ltds etc, when I bought my 555 the expert importer listed it as a ra! Completely wrongs. Check the engine code there was something on line with them all on!
The bodywork on that has had lots of mods! Be mindfull of the interior all the blue is a bit much!

The model code is the most important thing, it tells you the exact model....As you said, the 555 isn't an RA that's because its based on a V2 STI where as the STI V Limited is an RA being based on a V2 STI RA but with all the trimmings.

I will see if i can get the gc8 code and check it out,someone has posted on ra forum that they looked at it and thought the cambelt and oil had not been done as stated that they had,also said interior was not too clever so may give it a miss,not sure really.also said he thought he would take 4k

It does have the code gc8g4dd so is what it says but its had skirts fitted as it did not have them from factory,also got front lip spoiler not from factory and newage alloys so its not oe but looks good,also a guy on ra forum said its a wrx grille should be sti,seems a bit busy and had a few things played with so is it worth a punt or not ? A guy looked at it from ra forum and he never bought it so does that mean anything I don't know ? Carl.

i think the splitter does come on those, i`m sure its a v6 splitter anyway. i think what he means about the grill is the badge is a wrx, as said the grills themselves are exactly the same. looks decent to me.
