Mine is a 1997 Turbo on an R plate, and has a factory fitted sunroof. No air-con though.

I presume it'll be running at 208bhp if standard.

Sorry, don't understand the bit about "other geza's talkin wet once 2 me".

yup, thats deffo a turbo, mate has a green one with the factory fitted SR, again, no air con tho.

What have they done to the vents on the bonnet, they look like they have been meshed????


spoiler could do with changing, part from that, looks ok. Have you not driven it, surely you could feel the turbo

In fact, that's almost a carbon-copy of mine, as it was before I changed the alloys. Those suffer from being porous and the tyres on mine were forever deflating

The 2 side vent in that bonnet dont look standard at all, they are meant to be black, at very least they have been sprayed.

Believe that is an aftermarket sunroof as factory roofs were steel. It was common to fit such a sunroof at delivery.

mates is an electric glass roof, with the sliding cover into the head lining


if thats aftermarket, it does a hell of an impression of looking standard

it aint a WRX, they never made a green import car.


so unless its been resprayed, it isnt.


also, there is no extra rear foglight, no rear wiper....





its a UK car for certain, by his pistonheads add, he seems to know a little bit about it, what is it your asking him he doesnt know
