I'm looking at changing my WRX for some thing a bit quicker and a local dealer is about to get a 99 V-limited in, I've seen pictures of the car and it looks like a type R with a roof vent but I haven't got a clue about the spec's for this model at all. So any info at all will be a great help.

 

v-lims are normal just cosmetic stuff. Nicer interior, dash and seats, dashboard plaque, roof vents, spoilers plus all the kit, climate, electrics and normally a special colour like sonic blue.

I would have a limited version, if I didnt have one already LOL.

 

WRX STI V5 Type-R Limited?
WRX STI V5 RA Limited?
WRX RA Limited?

Each one has suttle differences including gearing between R and RA?

 

My V-Limited with spec

 

Don't forget the WRX Type R V-Ltd.
2 Door coupe in sonic blue, but no STi bits. Shame.

PS - Nice Car, DanTheMan !!

 

thanks Velo

 

My WRX type R V. Limited (non STI) put out 269.1BHP on the rollers at Prosport, its completly standard, not bad for getting from A to B, roof flap is useless though

My roof flap is absolutely brilliant, grabs loads of fresh air & circulates it (saves using a/c) and it blows right onto you keeping you really fresh.
Should be fitted to every car IMHO

 

I think it's the STI TYPE R but I didn't have a clue about the WRX model so I'll have to check when it gets here. What kind of price should I be paying for a 1999 TYPE R V-Limited in the UK?

 

nice motor dan!

 

Right now there seem to be about 20 on autotrader and the cheapest V5 is £14,000 and the most expensive is £17,000 (apart from one that is 20K) keep your eyes on the for sale section here, the Limited models are very rare though.........

 

Dan thanks for the info and nice car.

 

I would sell you mine for 17K!!!

 

Sorry not intrested in buying one in the UK as I get cars Duty Free in Cyprus so I can get one for around 10k.

 

Hey Dan the Man.

That's a good spec listing.

As major components go, add these onto your list.

Longer 5th Gear (longer than the RA and normal type R imports anyway).
Mechanical rear LSD.
