Other than the RA-Limited has a roof vent and the RA don't, is there any other difference?
Cheers John (hope to have one of these damn things soon, then the questions can really begin :D ) ;) |
John I don't know, I just know that if I am looking for an STi 5 or 6 whatsimathingamie Type Idonthaveaclue V Limited I know who to ask once you have sorted it all out :)

I think the Ltd has a few extra electrical goodies, bringing the spec up closer to a standard car, as opposed to a stripped out 'race altered' or whatever it is that RA signifies.

Hi John
OK, I'll have a crack at this : Not quite sure exactly what you're asking, so I'll try and answer : what's the difference between STI and non STI v-lim (version 6). STIs have : a higer red line of 8k (as opposed to 7.5) big spoiler 4 pot front brakes STI BB centre diff control carbon strut brace STI pistons RA limited (version 6)'s don't have a roof vent :) Helpful at all ??

Thanks for the info, what I'm tyring to establish is, would I be better off going for an STi6 RA, or a STi5 Type R v-limited.
Obvious thing being one is a 2 door and one a 4. I've got some info on the STi6 RA but wondered what difference there is verses the RA v-limited version. Stroof this is getting confusing :( Planning a trip round the country tomorrow looking at some cars I've tracked down, got cash burning a hole in my pocket but want the best spec'd car I can for my money, and the best looked after aswell. |
John
OK, well the 6 has the better interior. Other than that it's down to a 2 or 4 door preference. Best just to drive both and go for the better kept one. Good luck Adam |

For the fugly RA see http://www.iwoc.co.uk/jpnewagera.html There is also info on the Classic Type R and the RA on http://www.iwoc.co.uk/jpstir.html but its not as concise as the New age stuff. Steve [Edited by Steve Breen - 11/7/2002 7:22:56 PM] |
a real type r v-limited is based on a v4 and looses a lot. They have a small rear spoiler(same as early uk cars),tiny twin tail pipes(same as uk cars),no side skirts,no front spliter,black lower spec intercooler,no diff control,v-limited yellow crest on black seats. It does have roof vent and only comes in blue,they were all made in 97 & 98. A lot of people add bits to make them more like a std v 4, so totally original ones are very rare.
You cant get a 2 door RA. There is a lot of differences between a V4 and a V5. V5 and V6 are the same except the 6 has a lip on the rear spoiler and a slightly lower fornt spliter. |
sorry, just trying to help
