Looks like a V4 Sti Type R to me.

I thought all Type-Ra's were 4 door & all Type R's (2 door) were Wrx Sti.

I'm confused ..

Think you'll find that the RA designation means Race Altered and although its a 2 door its not an STI Type R. Does it have DCCD?

For example its unlikely its got a red top engine. These are very rare and I've only ever seen one before now - during a heated debate in General of all places.

Do you have better pics of the shut lines for the doors? One looks wider than the other.

And all i was saying if you go on the type r forum it says it a type r v limited (non sti) which might explain the non red top engine
