Default A few questions on hawkeye variants

What are the differences between the UK hawks and the JDM hawks - I know the engines are 2.5 for UK and 2.0 for JDM but what else sets them apart?

Also, regarding JDM hawks, what is the difference between a JDM STI, a Spec C STI and a Spec C STI Type RA?

Would the Type RA be a bit much as a daily driver? If so, how would the Spec C be as a daily?

Not that I'm hugely serious about buying but if I did (and I'm not even against a hatch as I quite like them too) if I did then I'd not want a car that knackers you out after an a couple of hours drive. Also have 2 kiddies so need an example that won't make them sick


oh, and another thing - there are blobeye Spec C Type RA but is there just Spec C blobs too? I've seen a Spec C Type RA blob for sale and just wandered if there was just a Spec C version.

I have a Spec C, can say they are a bit to hardcore for daily car.

they are the same car with a few bits added to the Type RA

The Spec C RA Blob was only available in widetrack, MY 05 onwards. People have advertised the earlier versions as RA's but they are telling porkies. The Applied Model code is the only way to tell.
