93 wrx type RA
Ok, basically this is my first scooby, few bits on it that I'd like to know everything about, like the water injection? Am I right in thinking that it's mainly for when your stuck in traffic? And then the 5th injector, I was told it was to help minimise lag? Then the closed deck block, is that so it's a bit safer to tune? Basically I'm trying
To figure out weather it's worth spending good money on it and getting it mint or using it as an everyday car until I've saved up for a better one? Love the car so doubt I'll be in a rush to sell it anyway! Just after a bit of advice and info on them.......
Thanks in advance
James

What my car doesnt have water injection?
It does, as it says water injection on the button and when u press it water comes out and drops over the ic! What was the point in putting on the 5th injector if it ain't used?

Hi James, First of all, if it's in a good shape overall, i say make it mint and keep it. These cars are quite rare (especially mint ones). These were essentially the base cars for the Group A rally Subarus. Take a look at www.type-ra.co.uk as well, quite a few RA owners hang out there.
How about some pictures?

Then there is the gearbox and clutch, the brakes are really pathetic etc.

It's pretty clean as it happens, needs a little bit of paint on the front but it will be going in to be done soon, it's on 98 thousand km! Clocks ain't been changed since it was imported, so what's that bout 50 k?

To the OP
Mileage is about 61000
I had a similar situation where I was trying to get more out of a 93 WRX and when I looked at the cost of everything just to make 300bhp it wasn't worth it as not only would you have to buy the mods but,as Tony said,the car is very old some of the standard bits may need replacing.
So I just went for a facelift version Impreza that already had 300bhp so I'm happy with that (for the mo )
