Well....decided to finally let the cat out of the bag although most people probably already knew it anyway. Recently went to Japan and spotted this FD which when i heard the price, I simply couldnt turn down :mmmm

Ill let the pictures do the talking. She should be here in about 12 weeks...which is about 12 weeks to long for me :driving
These pics are the sellers pics he took.

All I need to do now is go back and take some bits off it which will no doubt get stolen from the boat such as the apexi ECU and maybe remove bits which may get damaged.

Plans for it are simple - gt it resprayed, swap the RE-A headlights for some Cwest Lights and swap the Knightsports Bonnet for a Scoot! Otherwise i reckon shes perfect as she is. :)

Engine mods ?  Looks beautiful...

Stunner, dont swap anything though, its been modded with quality Jap bits, dont put some sh1te fitting replica bonnet on there. Lovely car well-done.
If you want to do anything, maybe some quality brake and handling upgrades. Get the best bits you can and do less quality mods, rather than lots of tat!

Looks stunning. I like the blue, the defuser, the demount steering wheel the...

Only thing I would do is get rid of the "spirit R" badges by side repeators.  Other than that it\'s nice enough as it is.  Good purchase.

What year is it? Engine spec?

Nik da Greek

She\'s certainly in your idiom, dude; bits of trim missing and wires hanging out everywhere! :)  Be a shame when you start using it as a delivery truck for all your manky old chunks of car!
 
No, actually that seems to be a very beautiful thing you\'ve bought there. Nice one, looks excellent!
 
I think you should put a crappy old Scoot replica bonnet on, though, cos that way you can flog me the Knight Sports one at a knock down price when you get it here! It\'ll make up for that daytime-only boost gauge I\'m still waiting to hear back from you about lol :Laugh

Think I have seen this for sale ...
The one I saw had a to4s single turbo conversion ...

awesome looking car! finally i get to see it! I think it looks good as it is, no need for the scoot bonnet, but maybe the headlights. I like the alloys, its very GT racer and in your face. I would like a car like this eventually but it would have to be something that comes out once in a while not my everyday driver!

like Nik says, its def a \'Jit-style\' interior with all the wires and bits all over the place lol!

Any chance of listing the engine specs? It looks like a beast!

RemarkLima

Looks very cool! And there was me thinking you\'d always put them back to standard trim ;)

Absolutely love those wheels, really suit the car.
Montego Blue 94 R2 FD3S... Bling not included.

Initial-D

Looks really nice, an excellent purchase! I\'d agree with Ross on the \'Don\'t change any of the Japanese bits\' I do think that ebay and Halfords add on bits really ruin a decent car.
Cheers

Nik - Im hoping I can secure a Scoot bonnet and I will be selling the KS at a fairly knockdown price! And yes with regards to the daytime only gauge, my paypal ac**** still aint working dude :(
