version 2 sti type ra. anyone got one?? opinions?
 

hi just wondering how the v2 sti type ra compares to a uk classic or my old car which was a v3 sti. iv seen a very low mileage car up for auction in japan which has a nice set of 17" wheels, adjustable suspension and aftermarket exhaust. i know these cars are meant to be raw and lighter with the dccd and very close ratios. i dont do any long distances just want a rapid toy so whats the opinions on them. btw this one doesnt have the elec windows so is the proper stripped out jobbie, oh and has a round sticker in the back window does this mean its got the ultra quick steering rack?? sticker looks like a uk tax disc. cheers.

Ive had v2 stiRa, and also a uk classic. To be honest apart from the Ra being quicker, handling better etc there isnt too much difference, although people will beg to differ.
I used to do a lot of motorway milage in the Ra and it wasnt that bad, if you can do without leccy windows/aircon etc id say go for it:thumb:
I stripped mine out, fitted a roll cage, braces, adjustable suspension, and a few other bits and it was totally different, and certainly made for a lively drive:D

Oh yeah, heres a couple of pictures.
