Like i said at the top, someone on here said it was a Bathurst but that doesnt make sense. The Bathursts didnt have hard suspension which mine has, or indeed had. So how does that work?

[efiniste]

What year is yours? The first Bathursts were based on the Type R so would have hard suspension.

:3Confused 1995. Some people on other forums are saying its a Type-R but manual transmission, seems odd to me.

[efiniste]

Well that\'s the first year Bathursts were out. I\'ll check the info I\'ve got at home as to exact spec over the weekend.
The manual transmission thing is incorrect. As Jono said above, that\'s already stated on the ID plate, they wouldn\'t add it as part of the designation. Besides, all of the other "Types" would also have to have M or A at the end of their designation to denote transmission and that\'s simply not the case.

Just looked it up. \'95 Bathursts were based on the Type-R. The Type RB was a separate model (that\'s what I\'ve got).

Damn you Mazda! So what does that mean? Is it a special edition?

[efiniste]

It was to begin with. In later years I think it was part of the normal range.

Damnit! I thought my car had legendary status.

[efiniste]

With all the top notch bits it has on it, I think it\'s beginning to acquire legendary status!

[FEED Rocket]

Tis true!
 
Off the subject a little, have you heard of shineautoproject? They make replica RE-Amemiya and FEED parts pretty cheap. Not sure if they ship over here but you really can\'t tell the difference!

off the subject a little??? more like a country mile, mate
 
EDIT: It\'s your thread, I guess you can take it where you like ;-)

I think someone on here sorted a group buy with them a while back. Looks nice stuff.
