Type RA Member. Jun 7, 2009. #2. On top of the block, just under where the intercooler goes to the intake manifold, there are two numbers. One of them is the engine number, the other is the crankcase number. I think the engine number is the one to the right as you are looking at it from the front. That would be the passenger side on a RHD vehicle.

Blindingly quick with huge stopping power and precise cornering, it's perfect for buyers after a practical saloon that offers stunning track day performance. A pure pleasure to winds of change are blowing in at Subaru, and the car it built to conquer Britain’s roads in 1993 is about to be hard to imagine life without the legendary Impreza turbo, but this year sees the four-wheel-drive saloon succeeded by a new hatchback. However, that’s not before it signs off with the most extreme version ever made. The grandly titled Impreza WRX STi Spec C Type RA-R promises to finally prove what the four-door is capable from the white 18-inch wheels and yellow paint, there are no unique parts that mark the RA-R out – even the standard STi’s rear wing has been deleted. At each corner, you will notice special brakes. They’re as close to racing items as you can get, with six-piston calipers at the front and a four-piston set-up at the need to be ‘warmed up’ before they work properly, but once up to temperature, they’re outstanding, with a firm pedal and tremendous power. And that’s good news, because the engine is unlike any before found in an turbocharged flat-four produces 320bhp and 432Nm of torque. Subaru’s engineers have tweaked the turbo, improved the exhaust and streamlined the air intake to produce bags of low-end surge and an incredible engine note. The RA-R gathers pace from a lowly 2,000rpm and feels strong right to the 8,000rpm red line. But more impressive still is its cornering ability. Subaru wanted to make this the best-handling Impreza ever, and by modifying the suspension and adding thicker stabilisers, the RA-R offers faster and sharper turn-in than any STi to date. In fact, you’d have to go a long way to find a 4WD that’s as while the suspension is ideal for rocketing around bends, this STi is no daily commuter, as the stiff suspension transfers every bump straight to your the 300 cars to be built, more than 270 have already been sold.

I have just bought an engine, which was removed from a Version 6 STi. The history of it was unknown, so it was a bit of a punt, but
It didn't take long for STI to start working on road cars, either. In 1992, it released the Legacy STI only in Japan. Two years later, it created the first WRX STI and the Impreza WRX Type RA STI

The Type RA was a stripped-out WRX that was officially sold to be more easily converted for motorsport. It had (much) less sound deadening, manual windows, a natty three-spoke Momo steering wheel
