As above - Japanparts lists (and always have done) all STI items even once they have been discontinued - years after in-fact... 22b bonnet vents, STI sport bumper (22b narrowbody) as prime examples.
There is no stock available in Japan of not just the struts but also the springs.
2pot - I'm VERY interested in your maths - how does 25% ontop of the screenprice of Japanparts website work out as a landed cost to UK shores...?
Shipping on struts @ approx 8-9KG each = approx £40-50 per strut.
Import duty @4% of cost price.
VAT @20% of true landed goods cost (Japan cost, Import duty and shipping included).
That simply equates to far more than 25% ontop of screen price....
ZANY - The Spec C RA is a different strut to the Spec C RA-R struts. They do share the same spring though...
Originality is where a high end limited edition car's true value lies.

Are you sure the spec c ra and the spec c ra-r springs are the same?

I have a very nice set of S203 shocks, springs, top mounts etc (complete struts ready to bolt in) that i would consider selling for the right money.
Springs are the same as RA-R, just the dampers are slightly different - S203 are 4 way adjustable, whereas the RA-R are fixed. You could argue that the S203 are actually an upgrade over the RA-R items.

The following numbers will be stamped into the circular body of the dampers. What you got @ZANY ?
S203
ST203104S140
ST203104S150
ST203604S140

Then
ST203104S160
ST203104S170
ST203604S160
ST203604S170
The STI catalogue - STI Performance: Sports parts for Impreza GDB (model f-g) list the 160/170 struts as being optional, for sti and spec c, and stock fitment on the RA.

ST203104S190

ST203104S191

RA-R non-adjustable
ST203104S200
ST203104S210
ST203604S200
ST203604S210
Surely there was the option of adjustable damping on the RA-R as well?
