Sussing out your car...help?
OK all
having followed the various helpful links from you all I am getting nearer to finding out exactly what I own. Here's my problem. From the codes it seems that my car is:
MY95: 09/94 – 08/95
WRX type RA
model code: GC8C47D
engine: EJ20G DW4HJ
transmission: TY752VB3EA
However, there are some things not quite right...Firstly it has no roof vent, second it has the i/c spray plus air con. Now presumably these things could have been options? I thought the i/c spray was a giveaway sign to an STi version? Are the engine codes right? Is my car some kind of hybrid?!

I could be wrong, but I think on the RA you could have air con as a dealer fitted option, but as standard it didn't come with the car (most people having gone to the effort of buying the light weight version didn't buy the aircon)

Yeah I reckon on this too - seems strange to buy the lightest stripped out machine then spec it up? The one that's really got me is the i/c spray as I thought this was only an STi goodie and not an option. Until I checked the engine code I was convinced it was an STi RA.
Anyone other dreams about mid-90s jap import specs?!
