Pic of car when Sticker less



car was valued at £14,000 just over a year ago spent about £15,000 on mods since then...

 

Ive found plenty of v.5's for sale but only 1 v.6 belonging to Housequake. Think im going to end up taking a cheque, keeping the car and selling it in bits. I'll make more money that way than settling for a cheque and the insurers keeping the car. 1st offers been 7k + car. Waiting to see what they'll give me for just a cheque. Anyway, im going to try and get as much as i can off the barstewards since they dont see a v.ltd being worth more than a normal type r (glass's guide £10800 for mint cond.) even though it clearly is going by market prices and was insured for a value of 17k at the time. (only a few months ago!) Starting to have a seruious think about getting a low mileage 22b.

So, no.520 might be getting broken for spares if i can get enough parts provisionally sold. Watch this space. I'll put a list up of parts and prices in the future IF its getting sold off. The only parts i'll probably keep are the apexi ecu, hks headers and hks fmic.

 

Dont forget Banzai next week this old girl is making an appearance

 

i'll look foward to that.

 

Thats a cracking car ftmanscoob....think i sw it at the clinic a while back....look forward to Banzai....check out JP in December..theres an intresting feature coming up....


Joe.....

 

So i see 3 Classics whos are they??

 

Why can't all type r's be like this
That is 1 gorgeous car!

 

where is the best place in the north east to get the rally decalls that bob has fitted they look the *****

 

Christ them orange alloys are terrible!!!!!!!
Car and pic looks really good though.
What happened to your Rotas then?

 

They arent orange really they are gold something went funny in Photoshop. Never used the Rotas looked to much like a P1.

 

and your front spliter doesn't

like to car BTW. What's interior look like?

 

Here are some recent pics of my Type R, hope you like 'em.











And the little album I've put together...

http://housequake.co.uk/_images/index.htm

 

Na it's to clean, go get it dirty then come back

 

Nice pics mate!
How did you get the 'STi' logo on your intercooler?
I know the newer ones came with it, but the Classics never came with it on the stndard ones.

What happened to your V6 splitter?

 

Does anybody know how to fold the rear seats on a Type-R down?

 

They won't fold down mate, you need to take the seat part out(two bolts), and then 2 or 3 bolts behind that lets you take the back seat part out

simb

 

latest pic!

 

Thanks!

STI logo was on when it came over, I thought it was standard?

V6 splitter? What v6 splitter? Are you sure these aren't JDM dealer fit options like the WRC mirrors?

 

The Intercoolers only came with the STi logo starting with the Bugeye STi. And the intercoolers were alot bigger on them. You have the original intercooler with it. It looks really good!

Just looked at the original brochure for your car.
The wing mirrors werent an option and the front splitter was standard on all Version 6 STi's.
Doesnt matter anyway, cause your looks GREAT!

 

What happen to your V6 seats? Your Type R confuses me...

V4 seats, V6 rear spoiler, V5 bumper (no V6 splitter/lip on lowe front bumper...)

hmm

 

the seats are the same as my verson 5, know what you mean thought a version 6 v ltd had blue seats?

 

The seats were removed by previous owner as he thought them to be too 'girlie'

No accounting for taste but I wasn't too keen on just having a pair of blue seats either, that said, I have been looking for a pair of 22B seats with matching door trims...like hens teeth.

What do you mean v5 bumper? Isn't this the same as all v6?

 

The V5 and V6 have the same bumper, the only difference being that the V6 has a splitter.

I have the V6 splitter on my V5.

 

Didn't they both have splitters.

 

? ? ?

 

nope just the version 6 had the splitter, the only version 5 to have a spliter was the p1

mike runs for cover

 

fatmanscooby got banzai yesterday,i must say the old girl looks very tasty indeed.nice writeup up aswell.i like the pic with the orange wheels my son wants to put the poster on his bedroom wall but i want it for the garage.what shall i do .
