Subaru Impreza FAQ
Is a good place to start - check the chassis code, lots of wrx ra's being passed off as sti's (a damaged one on Ebay right now)
I had a wrx ra - very basic spec! Loved the performance. Is that a version 2 or 3? 96 was the changeover year.
It should have a roof vent, DCCD electronic centre diff.
Good luck.
Cheers Chris

yes, and there's a switch on centre console near handbrake to adjust the DCCD.

I'm sure the DCCD should be near the handbrake, its a round **** as far as I know you can't miss it.
Only the STi's had them so you could adjust from 4wd to Rwd etc
Make sure it is a genuine STi RA if thats what they are selling as. Check the code on the VIN plate.
Both are great fun, but don't get ripped off. Hope this helps
