Default How to identify a Classic STi RA ?

Can someone point me in the right direction on how to tell if if a STi RA is the genuine article ?

Its a 1996 model with the roof vent & DCCD but what abot the engine ? Should this be the one with the red on it ?

Is there any way to tell by the chassis number or any other chassis plate codes ?

I'm sure there used to be something on here that would decode the chassis plate & tell you exactly what it was ???

Any help greatly appreciated !

Thanks,
David

hello Dave what is the chasis number im sure someone on here will do a check for you, by the sounds of it, it is an STi Ra. Should have a red top engine too (unless peeled of or replaced)

You need the applied model code which is on the VIN plate Post it here and see what happens. Some of the internet sites that "read" the code are a bit flakey LOL

It should read on chassis code GC8D4DD or GC8C4DD. IIRC it will be a 4 door with roof vent. DCCD. Red top engine. Quick rack sticker Normally a limited edition plaque sticker by ashtray with 001/1000.
