nice one miss scooby, great motor!!

regarding the switch, its next to the auto spray button and just says A/P. def not the manual one, i have that too. looks like a subaru switch, exactly the same as the others and the rear fog light is at the other end.

doesnt seem to do anything?

This must be the TypeR CORNER!

I said id put some newer ones up with the refurbed P1 alloys in Black Chrome.

You cant see it on here as its a bit dark, but It laso has a bigger back box now. ;D





I think the wheels look so much better. Check out the customer STI rim logos

I have to say I have never REALLY looked at the type R's but having looked at this thread I would sell my brand new STi8 for one. They are gorgeous. Love the black wheels on the grey one all the blue ones, the white one .mmmmm infact they are all great.

I will have one one day.

Nescoob,

Mines got a link, but it was in when I bought it.

What I can say is that it was originally mapped for a mild 97ron (304BHP/278Ib.ft) back in 2001 and when I remapped to Optimax (No Octane booster) and my upgraded topmount it quickly spun out the clutch.

So it was up on power to start, but now quicker with a lot more advance than before and no det..
