well i think this will be to quick..

i know where there is a type-r for sale..........blue,and cleaned alot...

the bloke wants rid as has spotted a nice ra for sale with some good graphics..

serious note think that could be a winner looks good,good spec,like the wide f/fenders,and looks like a track beast...and love the spoiler..

was going to get a gt type..

just think it would look better on my drive.

(thanks little man) see even he thinks so

i think that the car is modded for the track and would suit it very well, its a nice car , but i think your maintainance on it as a road car would be very high and petrol cost i dread to think lol, for that kind of money you could probably pick up a nice type ra/ sti classic or even a bug, alot of thinking to be done on your part, but whatever you choice i wish ya good luck,

Hearing you loud and clear, Would be an animal but wiser to get a more standard car etc.... Want a 98/99 V4/V5 type r or ra with a bit more bhp than standard if poss. this has been on for a while, but really want a 22b kit style etc... could get one fitted

would be very hard to fit kit to this..... could be done...

for the money you are looking at you could buy standard car..ra or r with alot left

get all bits and know in your mind its done the way you want .....and power is up to you

mine came fully kitted.... put to standard...and now re-tuning it...so i can pick bits i want..

if its got a few bits you want thats a bonus

cheers chris

Going to phone bonsai cars and see what they got, seen a few nice 98 type r's but people asking silly money 6-7k etc..... would need to get alarm new ecu so might as well stick on 1k as well. Spoke with someone on scooby.net who got a 98 type r of bonsai for all in 4k so seems quite good then would have some money left for remap + some mods etc.... anyone imported?

quite like this but seems pricey? whats it worth?

prefer the white one myself mate, that does seem pricey mate that blue one, and a 6 speed did they do a classic with that(i dont no, im intrigued now lol)
