Yes it also had 16" steel wheels and DCCD, the 17" wheeled car had the gold Brembos and non DCCD.

Seats are STI blues, wind up windows, no air bags, no front fogs. but great cars.

I proper love mine.

My spec c blob was a Motorsport versions Basicly comes with naff all obviously with it been intended for Motorsport use they would put all there goodies on.

As said above

Throw away interior
Manual windows
No brembos
Possibly no spec c spoiler
Rubbish wheels

To list a few, makes a great project usually abit Cheaper to buy obviously due to the lack of uprated parts....

Ive done all of the above over a period of time and love her to bits

Hey bud, good to here from you.

Yep i haven't really used it tbh and im still loving it.

No ive still got them and now i understand how they work they are quite fun.
The 2 people who have driven the car also seem to like them and have suggest that i keep them, i do have a buyer should i decide to sell.

The paddle clutch is the biggest problem, ill look at getting it replaced next year once i start using the car again.

Glad to hear you have got used to them mate. I only use mine on the odd occasion really but wanting to run it on track early next year I think so having a oil cooler and coilovers this winter along with another few bits to tidy it up.
Still liking mine just want to use it more next year lol.

I thought about white but went black

Pretty sure there's a date in November at outlon park with a few from cams but other than that I'm not sure, hawk is awesome still but too harsh for for the crap roads as its set up now, lol, fun though

Paul, it's A-DCCD with an option of manual adjustment front to rear

Haha tbh mine is just for weekend use etc so not to fussed about it being to harsh.
It won't be ready until next year now as needs a oil cooler and coilovers etc before it goes on a track day plus I'm stuck in work most of the time.
You going in November?
