Spec C to Type R
As title im putting the running gear from a 2009 jdm sti spec c into my much loved v5 Type R. I was first owner from Japan and have owned the car for nearly 5 years. Since then have done a few mods here and there but now its due a little something different.
All work is being carried out by Nik at www.carandcustomgarage.co.uk
Undoubtably a perfectionist, fully understood what i was aiming to achieve and im amazed at the quality of worked achieved.
Items i have for conversion so far
2009 jdm sti spec c motor with 21km
2009 jdm sti dccd 6 speed gearbox
Tein circuit masters
Carbon fibre brides with takata harnesses
Sti 8 jdm brembo calipers all round
Type ra roof vent
Narrow body 22b front bumper
This is what the car looked like before i decided to put it into storage while i saved and found some parts
Brides ;-)
JDM spec C 21km
JDM 6 speed
Arriving at car and custom garage ready for conversion
Engine bay stripped battery tray removed and roof vent fitted
Almost ready for paint.
Any feedback greatly appreciated good or bad

Few more updates
Just awaiting for lots of new parts to come back from the powder coaters, hopefully have the motor and box in by next month.
Progress is slow
Removing excess sealer
Base coat
And finally painted
Under front wing
Lonely nights in the garage
