Rae,

Your turbo is the one thats got the wizzy thing in the middle.

Your suspension is the one thats got the coily springs on.

Your transmission is the one thats got the gear knob stuck out the top.

Hope that helps :):)

The engine was vastly updated and was given the name Boxer Master 4. It developed the then-established gentlemen's agreement power limit of 280 PS (276 hp/206 kW). Torque peaked at 4000 rpm with a value of 35.0 kgf·m (343 N·m). Standard this version has a top speed of over 240 km. The car gained 10 more kilograms and weighed at 1250 kg (2756 lb). The STi shared the same face lift that the rest of the Impreza line received.

With Version III came the start of the coupe version of the WRX STi. It is called the WRX Type R STi. The coupe was chosen by Prodrive for use in the WRC because it was smaller, lighter and stiffer than the 4 door version. It was essentially a 2 door version of the WRX Type RA STi meaning it had DCCD, little sound-insulating material, close-gear ratios and the gearbox was hardened. This car also has a water-spray nozzle to dampen the top of the intercooler. The water will then evaporate, which takes heat away from the intercooler and cools the intake charge. This car was produced on an order-only basis.

Also there was WRX STI type RA (4 door) available in Version 3, they have the same motor, gearbox and R180 diff as the Version 3 WRX STI Type R, including DCCD, Aluminium bonnet and front guards, no sound deadening and thinner glass. The ECU is also an exclusive tune. The Type R tends to be a bit stiffer and weighs 1190 kg (2624 lb). The DCCD has been known to bite new drivers in the wet. The RA gets a roof vent instead of map lights, Also wind up windows, although electrics are an option from factory.

Also available was a WRX Type R V-limited, in version 3. It has a WRX motor - no forged internals like the STI, and it misses out on the 4 pot front brakes (as these parts are removed and replaced in a rally fit out) but it has a roof vent and is lightweight. A good base for a rally car. This light weight product makes it unstable for racing. But racers seem to be fine with that.

Version 3 STI runs a VF23 IHI ball bearing turbocharger, The JDM non Sti gets a VF22
