Totally agree staffi, the Type 25 is a whole different animal altogether.

I do just about anything to get my hands on a type 25, that bodykit looks great too, I'd leave the stickers off though.

Has your son just won the lottery

Personally I'd do without the bodykit.
Half the joy of the T25 is the Q car element.

Demon Tweeks do an OMP 10pt for about £350 iirc - but it needs to be welded in. Don't ask me why its called a bolt-in when you have to weld it

I'm not sure of your budget etc but RCMS current beastie runs a sequential box. You can then get air-shifters etc.
