Thats a very nice Type R. It looks well looked after. Fair play. More interior pics if you can.

@wrx-sok....Did the Rollcage come in the car when you bought it? If it didnt can you give some information on it? Thanks.

Default thanx...

thanx for all the great comments peeps.

i bought the car with the roll cage in it already, all the interior panels were kinda out and it had some leather interior that i wasn't too fond of. so i changed the the complete interior for standard v4 sti interior.

i had a v3 front end that didn't appeal to me and led lights on the rear that again didn't tickle my fancy. Morettes on the front i didn't like either.

so.... it became my mission to make the car look asthetically pleasing to the eye

i fitted the front mount myself with the help of a mate and a still saw

everything from an engine overhaul to changing the face of the car iv done myself, with the help of another mechanic. im not a mechanic, but needed his tools
