Case in point, a really mint WRX RA for sale last week in Scotland for 1500 quid.

Only comments forthcoming were if only you were closer .... 1500 quid ffs !

People will travel don't get me wrong but you've really got to want it

I did see those ones at keighley before I bought mine in Japan, they've been for sale for ages. I thought it might have something to do with it being in Scotland but I sold my spec c to someone in Birmingham last year but like you say they have got to want it to travel! And it's definitely worth travelling for.

im not in a rush to sell it just seems a shame it sitting in storage.

About time too! It was killing me having an S202 for sale not far from me at that price...

Hope it went to a good home and not a dealer Rab who'll stick a couple of grand on it.

Default Good Home

Hi,

Just to confirm that the S202 has gone to a good home and has now the company of a nice white 03 Spec C.

She'll be well looked after.

Thanks Rab :-)

Modrich,

Similar, yes but still different if that makes any sense.

My Spec C is more track focused with Tein Coilovers and lots of other mods.

Apart from a Hayward and Scott exhaust and a remap, the S202 is almost standard.

As far as performance goes the S202 delivers it's power in a raw, almost brutal fashion and is quicker in a straight line. The Spec C handles like a dream although quite hard suspension for the road.

I'm lucky to have both !!

Cheers,

Malc.

Interesting My S202 has Ohlins and other handling mods and I rate it very highly. I would have though the Spec C would pip it being twinscroll but I agree the VF34 is savage

Hi, I've had to lower the boost on my Spec C for the 22B sprint series. It spools up quicker and earlier than the S202 but for sheer mid range grunt my S202 has it.

I just love the underrated looks of the S202, surprises a few cars, not to mention the GSXR's on the twisty bits!

Cheers,

Malc.
