Exactly what I thought bud.
I am sure the car was sold by Litchfields last year or 2010.

Funny, it states 2Lt in the details section, then 2.5 lower down. Really nice looking car though. One thing that always worried me though, are the front mounted I/C's not susceptible to damage? Would they not get enough air with a grill in front of them? They always look as though the car hasn't been finished off properly to me.

.330bhp/430ft/lb Isn't that a high torque figure for a 2.0L?

That will be down to the gay 2.5 its got fitted
If it was a standard 2.0 JDM Spec-C engine, It would have sold a long time ago

If you really think im trolling you then so be it,
im genuinely interested in Spec'C's tho and a white hawk could be my next one. probably without a 2.5 also.

To be fair some people will fit any old engine regardless to sell it on
I'm surprised they haven't called it a 2.25 just to hedge their bets
It's the right neck of the woods to be a fodged 2.5

I spoke to the guy on the phone about it, it was on pistonheads.

No bud. Those days are well over.
Always on the look for a nice Spec C as this is one of the only cars that may re-light my car interest spark.
Still got the type R but not driven her since Oct 2011.
