V-Limited?
First of all Hello to all, new to the forum and already have found a ton of useful info here. Now I have a little question:
Does anyone have info on V-Limited Type-R sales and equipment? The deal is I bought a Version 4 Type-R V-Limited but it does not have the number zzz/zzz badge. I have read that the Type-R V-Limited was an "on order" car, but how many were there and how can I be sure it really IS an V-Limited? What do the regular STi Type-r not have that the V-Limited is supposed to have? Paint, I/C spray? Thanks. Aaro |
there is a whole subforum dedicated for this,

Please post some pictures of the car up too!

Oh the facebook horror!

Didnt make sense to research before buying?

I've owned an Version 4 Type-RA V-Limited before so I know a thing or two about the V-Limited series but as this Type-R is a limited production "on order" vehicle and no certain production numbers are shown I just wanted to give you all the chance to show the knowledge about these cars. In the genuine literature forum part I already was and I did not find the info I was searching. Also the Type-Ra.co.uk is known to me. Because of the large amount of info I found in the Genuine literature forum I began asking here, not somewhere else. Will post pics up later. The car is still in japan, waiting for the ship. Edit: did actually find something I have already seen: [URL="http://www.type-ra.co.uk/pdf/version-4-v-limited.pdf"]http://www.type-ra.co.uk/pdf/version-4-v-limited.pdf[/URL] Thanks to all. Btw: Not from english speaking country, so excuse my spelling. :) Aaro |
STi Type R V-Limited is the 2 door that was only released for 3 to 4 months in Japan.
It only came out in the Sonic Blue (WRC Blue) and should have a badge on the rear for the 1997 WRC win. Only the STi Type RA and WRX Type R came with limited edition badging. RA came with the blue WRC embroided seats, Type R has normal coloured seats (red wings). It does not come with a roof scoop if it is the STi version. Only the WRX Type R and the STi Type RA got them. |
check the sports parts catalogues in the literiture section, that will cover the options available when they ordered the car.
being v-limited though, it would still have a xxx/2000 build number somewhere, likley lost. |

My car is produced in 03/98 (checked from subaru FAST), has the sonic blue color, has I/C spray. Only thing missing is the 97WRC win badge that I also had on my RA. |

I've got the Japanese catalogue here (attached). Version IV STi Type R does not have limited edition numbers.

Also, sell me the front lip :D

Interesting that the WRX has the roof ventilator and the STi does not. Well anyway that should do it, its the real deal like advertised.
Here are a few pics of my RA V-Limited I sold and regret selling: [IMG]http://images.orkut.com/orkut/photos/OgAAAEECMVw-ff6LSkATUkdfW_na_a5_jt4YJC7WRwDTgi44m-s4d7EZZFih-pmNEKKojNgrSpKVRsh5sPUGbllA5msAm1T1UCQfmrloG1wU3AIEcyl5atrjlog6.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://images.orkut.com/orkut/photos/OgAAAL1IZEW6XTDGIW0EfBs5vGCVc9ZNlL5x_VmULfmBpr2vZh-IN9T_DnoXhWZW_gu7z9jjqTiW7DMqKLGdoUwElKsAm1T1UCXWXaqXQ-Lw_U1GbxBQjFBAbv9j.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs468.ash2/74132_1689923885106_1147999595_31920940_2767767_n.jpg[/IMG] Will be posting my Type-R for you to view once I get the car from japan to me. Thanks a lot for your help :cool: Aaro |
