Just bought a \'94 Type R, having it checked over by roteckniks on tuesday so fingers crossed everything will be okay....

It has height and damping adjustable coilovers (not sure what make, find out on tuesday), HKS twin filters, bov and a 5zigen exhaust.

How can i post some pics up ?

Nice choice in car colour matey :) Really does look sweet in silver, especially if you add a bit of bright colour to the calipers, like a red.

Fingers crossed it gets through its test alright, if you\'re on a stock ecu may be worth upgrading that considering your mods, will also give you a good foundation later on.. then skys the limit, as will be your credit card :)

Cheers, Jode.

Very nice! I love those wheels, too! :InLove

Cheers !

Yeah i\'m considering an apexi Power FC, but I need to get the bushes done on the rear first.... Also the speedo doesnt work :( It\'s really sluggish moving and shows the wrong speed.....So that needs doing too...

That looks gorgeous.
With those lovely alloys and lowered ride height, it just shows a body-kit isn\'t always needed for the FD.
Look after it mate  :wave

Totally agree with above.  With stunning clean and straight bodywork you dont need a fancy bodykit.  Sits really nice on the coilovers.

Nice Example.  :wave

Lovely looking example, mine\'s in silver so I\'m a bit biased.

Those rims real do suit the car, are they 17\'s or 18\'s?

Thanks for the comments everyone !

The rims are 18\'s, 255 35 18 rear and 225 40 18 fronts.

The compression test results were good thankfully->

Front Rotor
6.9/6.9/6.7

Rear Rotor
7.5/7.6/7.5

The turbo trunk connnector needs replacing with a silicon hose and the n/s/r lower outer bush needs sorting, so nothing much.... It\'s booked in for a major service just for my peace of mind so i\'ll get them sorted then......

The cars not quite as clean as it looks in the pics, theres a few little scratch\'s and I think the front arches have been rolled and the paints cracked a bit on the edge :( Not really noticeable when cleaned and wax\'d though!
