I am lead to believe it is a 1998 V4 WRX RA 280Hp, but I have not had it on a dyno so I can not say for sure.

Model: GC8E47D
Engine Type: EJ20KDW6HD
Transmission Type: TY752VB5BA

Welcome! I thought this looked familiar, hope you pass her quickly. Hopefully in time for one of the upcoming cruises.

Going by those codes, your correct 98 WRX RA.

Was this licensed today or were you just sitting in your driveway with a pal in the passenger seat sussing it out?

Looks good

Welcome. Good to see you're not going the AutoSalon route with this. Having said that, I do quite like the purple and white combo.

That's because it is already AutoSalon spec....

Welcome mate...that front bar looks like it's seen better days and the rims are from Hot4s but the paint actually doesn't look too bad!

I know jack shit about RA's....but i assume that kit and paint is not factory?
