Me again :D

My quest for another car has now led me to a 98 STi IV Type R V-ltd

Can anyone point me to any pictures of this car, or information.
I've done the usual SIDC, IOWC and google search, can't find any decent pictures :(

Cheers

John

Will the inside be the same :)

Katana 26 October 2002 11:53 AM

Why don't you change the Steering wheel? Don't they make steering bosses for that model? I've seen one for sale for MY 93-95 in Halfords.

Katana what do you mean?

Katana 26 October 2002 12:15 PM

Changing it to an aftermarket steering wheel. I wanted to change it on my MY93 to a momo Tornado (the sweet looking one with carbon fiber). I would've thought that to be the first mod to change as the Nardi that I had anyway was unnatractive.

johnfelstead 26 October 2002 03:31 PM

there seems to be something wrong with your car simon, its seems to be crabbing down the road severly. ;) Fantastic photos, really shows what you can do with a TypeR/RA!

Good excuse to show what an RA can do in the dry too. :D

I thought it was an STI 5 TypeR you were going to look at?

The standard steering wheel is a nice wheel to drive with, plus it has an airbag. I wouldnt change it myself.

Katana 26 October 2002 05:04 PM

Exactly, its the airbag that bothers me. It adds weight to the car and to lose weight I should either get rid of the airbag, or get rid of some weight on me. There's no chance in hell I'm going to lose weight or I'll probably dissapear. :eek: :D

Damn :(

Took me 3hrs to get to view the car yesterday, got there in the dark in the end, he opened the garage door and I'm greeted with a low level rear spoiler and a very early looking car.

It was a superb example of a very well looked after low mileage car, I think it was an STi3 V limited (Had the 97 champion badge on the back and the emblem also on the seat backs)

:(

Heck I aint got a scooby now and I need one bad :D

Phiroze

Your car looks superb mate, infact I had already printed your pictures off to show my folks what I was supposed to be looking at.

YHM asking a few more questions :)

My mistake, it was printed as an WRX V limited Type R
I assumed V was 5, it obviously don't :D
