Richie Cross Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Hi folks, Hope you're all well. It's been a while. I do pop in for a read from time to time A mate has been looking at an RB320 that's for sale at the Honda garage in Shawlands. It's listed as standard but the guy in the garage said he's driven others and this one feels faster. Didn't take note of the build number but the VRM is TN07 CPS. Thought it rang a bell and it had had other work done on it. Cheers Link to comment
StrikE Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) Pop over to the owners club & ask on there or read the forums as i am sure that plate rings a bell. Watch out for Cat D or is it C listed RB's as i think there has been a couple rebuilt after some really bad shunts. Get them RB owners Just make sure its not YD07 CEY........ its a shed!

Richie Cross Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Cheers...should've said that I've already posted on the owners forum. Just covering all angles! Link to comment

scoobywho Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) I was going to buy that RB320 from Henrys until I drove it, it is completely standard but has no leather or satnav and pulled to the left under acceleration the car is in overall clean condition but I didnt think it was worth the 15000 asking price. Scott PS it was slower than My hawkeye i have just now Edited May 8, 2013 by scoobywho Link to comment

scoobywho Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 That's it. Thought the VRM was familiar Once I found out more about them I started a search for a Spec D Link to comment
fai17 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I wouldn't buy a RB320 without the leather seats. I think that's was made it more special. Actually I didn't know that you can get a RB320 with normal seats. Link to comment

scoobywho Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 What have you done to your hawkeye? Decat remap and hybrid filter, and toyed about with a few other bits. Link to comment
scoobywho Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Nope wrx but 283bhp and 347 lbsft of torque at the wheels on standard turbo. That rb felt sloppy and slow to take off. Link to comment
