And my first Scoob will be here . Just checking but the imported 1995 Sti is 280bhp right, 0-60 should be 5.7 seconds,is that right???? onder2:

A MY95 is a STi v2 which had 275bhp (on 100RON+ fuel) so you may have to use octane booster and a good SUL petrol.

Enjoy

dpb

supposed to have been 4.5 on my sti 1 .. (102 ron prolly)

paulcornwall

4.5 sec bloody hell thats alot quicker than i thought!!!

Without wanting to appear to be argumentitive; a 1995 STI will be an altered-production STI Type-RA, available only in white with a roof vent. If its fresh it should make about 270bhp on 100+ octane fuel. Bear in mind that an STI-2; although a 1996 model year car, was available from September/October 1995..... again with 275PS on Japanese premium unleaded.

Yes thats correct, the MY95 is V2.

Its a bloody quick car, but not suited for motorways as mine was always screaming at 80mph @4200rpm.

I'd go back to one anyday over any 4-door Classic shape model.

More like 5.9 for yours which was the first STi but not the first 'production' STi. The version 2 was the first 'production' STi and 5.7 (5.9 for normal 260PS WRX) sounds about right. The version 2 STi Type RA may have had a 0-60 of just under 5 secs due to the gearing. A standard STi 1 was no way near 4 secs and had performance comparable to a later standard WRX, but is still a nice car.
The later (Version 3 onwards) model STi's make 0-60 in under 5 approx, and are all 300PS as standard. Again this is not on 97 Ron fuel so this has to be taken into account. Type R's are quicker still.

flat4_ire

which one u got??? ah man 32 are ugly, 33 way to go

C 8HEP

both and a 33gtr white with 600bhp on way

There was only one phase of 'altered' cars. The version 2 was the first full factory production STi with , as you say 275 PS. Only version 1 (about 250-260PS - yes even on an STi) was altered by Subaru Technica International 'after' being entirely made by Subaru in Korea and then handed over to STI. I'm not sure about the RA bit you mention. These may have have come out in version 1 from standard, and then made into STi's. The first RA's had closed deck blocks from standard factory spec and are favoured even now with mod'ers of classic scoobs. Wonder what the first RA's redlined at? 7500? Compared to 8000 from version 3 onwards, and 7500? in version 2...

man u rich **** hate u

paulcornwall

Just been out in it and its fantastic, its totally std but might be better to keep it that way. I've got some pics maybe this might clarify the model, can anyone host them for me?

Nope wrong. An sti2 does not come only in white and with a roof vent. It can come in white but it is only the ra that comes with a vent.

Stuart (owner of sti2)

paulcornwall

So what model is mine then?? v1, v2????
If anyone knows i would'nt mind knowing the stats, thanks ppl

Daft Lad

As its on an N reg I'd presume it was a V2 mate

paulcornwall

Thanks mate, now i'm geting somewhere. Any1 know the stats for a V2 sti then??

GC8

No I havent; I have corrected you mistake. A 'MY95' can only be an STI Type-RA. The very few STI Version2's are Model Year 96 cars.

GC8

I havent said that an STI2 comes only in white. I have said, correctly, that a MY'95 STI will be an STI Type-RA, which is only available in white and it has a roof vent.

GC8

Fotr crying out loud! Why is everyone arguing with me? Neutral Cruiser, youre wrong. The first production STI was manufactured from September 1995 onwards and it is a Model Year '96 car. In 1994 STI retro-converted a (disputed) number of GC8 and GF8 Imprezas, commonly held to be a run of 100 and then a further run of 200 cars of each type. In 1995 this continued with an altered-production STI based on the Type-RA. This car was only available in white, it had a roof vent and it produced 275PS, as opposed to the 250PS of the original car. This is NOT an 'STI2'; the STI Version 2 was the first model to be built in series production which started in September/October 1995. This vehicle will be a'Model Year '96' car.

Does anyone else want to argue with me based on what theyve heard, rather than what they actually know? Im sure that they will, seeing as one **** on ScoobyNet once tried to tell me how I pronounce my own f*cking surname after watching my uncle race on the telly!
