Here you go HOL, one close to your heart.

Having the roof rebuilt, so a rare sight. She's getting there slowley

 

The holy grail of the type r's . 1997 v3 sti type r will be in my garage in a few weeks time cant wait .

 

Here's mine with a question. Does anyone's roof vent condensate or do I have a leak?
Mark

 

^ nice. Any more pics?

My roof flap can get mildew forming on the inside - wipes off easy enough

 

Looks great mate, this used to sit down the street in Bridge of Don in Aberdeen used to fall in love with it walking past it when I was younger.

My Type R looks pretty similar to yours albeit with p1 wheels. I'm going for the facelift look after xmas though as the genuine 3 piece front splitter had caused me no end of bother !

Keep it looking original like that looks amazing.

 

She is certainly getting her Mojo back.:
I'm pleased to see you scored the Prodrive seats too.

Do Subaru still sell the V6 lips?


When (if) you come to sell, do let me know. I have a space next to the ProEvo in the garage and there will always be cash for that car.

 

V6 !ip part nos from my old thread;

57796FA530NN - Spoiler x 1 @ £95.85
57728AC090 - Bumper Clip x 2 @ £0.66
57798FA100 - Protector x 1 @ £23.78
57728FA080 - Screw Grommet x 9 @ £0.38
904560009 - Screw x 9 @ £0.13

All prices plus VAT so about £117 for the splitter!

 

Thanks. Just wondered as there is a fair amount on mine.

 

Version 4

 

Nice! Do you not want the oe graphics? I put them on my v3 for originality but they do look a bit cartoony!

 

Some awesome Type R's. I need to get some better pics up.

 

Cheers
The OE stickers weren't on my car when I bought it.
I've always wondered if they were an optional extra.

The Type R looks great with or without them imo, there are so many good looking cars in this thread it doesn't make my decision to have or to have not any easier

Also got front bumper and going back to orange indicator decision as well (standard is the new modded it seems)

Milan were those wind deflectors already on your car?

 

Myblackwrx - My car came with wind deflectors but were broken so I replaced them with new ones. I managed to source the last new set from Japan. Took me ages to find. Wind deflectors for type r models are discontinued but you can still get them for 4 door models.

I also put the original decals on the car, genuine sti mud flaps and 17" sti rays which were an optional upgrade.

Classics definitely look better in standard form.

 

I Soooooooooooo want a Type-R again :-(

My Type R Project

 

Looks ace that C.J

 

 

My v4

 

 

 

The beast looking forward to seeing it again soon .

 

Just had my type r MOT'd, soon to be back on the road after about 6 years

 

This is my V5 98 Type R - not a one for the Subaru purists, but I like to be a little bit different with the C-West USA kit

2.1 Forged Stroker with AlcaTek ECU currently running around 430+ with 400 ft/lb

It's having a full 6 speed UK STI gearbox conversion over the next few weeks with a load of other mods including FMIC conversion, RCM GT Spec Headers & Harvey Up Pipe, etc and then we are gonna turn the wick up to the max on tthe MDX555-450 turbo. Being remapped on 3rd March. I bought this car about 6 weeks after I sold my fully forged Hawkeye STI "The Terminator" a couple of years ago and I have loved this little car. I don't think I will sell it though as I like it too much at the weekends

 

Well the car was mapped by Bob Rawle last week and now drives absolutely brilliantly. Running arond the 460bhp mark and it feels it too.

Bit of tidying up to do on the engine bay...but it will do for now.





Absolutely love this little car

 

I know this is supposed to be a photo thread but I'm curious. Do any of you guys use your Type Rs as a daily driver?

 

Mine is a weekend/evening stress reliever!

 

Same here, if weathers good I'm taking to work.
