Is this the same as our US's STI?
I was looking for JDM stuff and I found a site where they sell JDM cars. So whats this? It says 2002 Impreza WRX STi spec C. But i'm confused.

It's different. Here's a link where you can see some of what the Spec C has.

basically 2.5 is krazy, but dont mean better. jdm has STi's too because all imprezas, STi's jdm or usdm or europeandm, WRX jdm or usdm or europeandm all manufactured in gunma. just different regulations for different countries. thats why they come differently depending on the smog regulations for each nation.

I think Spec C RA is a Stripped down Basic's only version of the WRX STi J Spec.. with the 2.0L boxer4
Basically this car is for turning into a Rally car...hence RA. rally application Is what it stands for *heard it here, not sure if officially*
Car has weight reduction like no AC, lighter pannels, but a bigger waterspray tank in the back.

The RA, yeah, if they don't go all the way to a body-in-white....
The USDM STi is sweet, but the Spec C is incredible.
The RA is roughly equivalent to the Evo RS, except, I don't think they put hoopty wheels on the RA.

The RA line from Subaru is thier "Rally Applicant" or "Racing Applicant" line. Basically, these are cars that are intended to be used for motorsports. The Spec-C version is the lighter weight version of the STi RA, and is the basis for the Subaru Group N rally cars.
*sigh* If only I could get one here in the US.
