Default ok its got me baffeled what is it ??

i live in gloucester and there is a blue two door scooby thats in cheltenham , first thing that springs to mind it typr r two door !! but its got no vent ,no turbo engine ! i did see if it had a front mount just incase he took the turbo bonnet off . so is it a case of a type r thats had a blown engine and a non turbo put back in ? or did they make a non turbo two door ?

If it has a FMIC it has to be turbo, also explains why the bonnet scoop isnt there, sounds like a sleeper(looks like a sport from the front),

Ye, most probably a retna, I doubt anyone would repair a type r with standard NA parts...

altho you could always do the opposite....中古車探し | クルマ・ポータルサイト Goo-net

this guys taken a standard retna, and given it a few sti bits. Its also 4wd, which I assume is standard...
