it's got sideskirts, painted handles and mirrors, electric windows and climate control so it's not RA material. It's had a few things done to it (like the bumpers) so i'd guess it's had dccd retrofitted. RAs are less desirable in Japan but the DCCD is still a fantastic setup.

haha, sorry, but sooo wrong, RA's are amongst the most desirable, its the normal sti's that are littered all over the used adds..... The sti RA is well know in Japan for being one of the best.....

So anyway, yeah, might be a retro-fitted DCCD..... seems a lot of work though...

You wont make many friends with your 'I moved to Japan and now I know it all' attitude.

In all fairness, if people loved him in Japan, he should move back there lol.

What is this all about? People in Japan love the Type RA's.....

I was just telling the guy how it is...... I dont see any need for "putting people into ignore lists" or anything just because I informed him about something he doesnt appear to be well informed about

I haven't added you to my ignore list if it makes you feel better. I've added you to my mental list of people I won't answer on SN now

And breath,

i`m pretty sure thats not an RA, as well as all the other things mentioned it also has a rear wiper which RA`s never had, he`s just removed the arm from the rear window

Its not an STi RA, givaway signs are the electric ariel, colour coded parts, passenger airbag, no roof vent (a standard feature of STI RA's).
