Have you test driven the type r? If you do buy it, please, please, please put the standard scoop and bonnet vents back on. Did I say please?

i would keep what you have. sounds like you have spent a lot of money on some choice mods would be mad to sell it imho.

Do it mate. classics are by far the better car in my opinion and certainly the type r. i take it its got an aftermarket ecu when its mapped. stick on a afp 05-20g and s set of 740 injectors and you will no be far fae 400bhp and thats good power on the classic..

70000 miles on a classic engine. no mention of a forged build. 5 speed gearbox. a set of injectors and a 20g will get you 400hp? good luck with that one mate.

difficult one this i love classics but having owned 2 im now looking at a newage sti myself tbh i prefer the classic looks but they are getting on a bit now and i think most are getting to the stages where they start going wrong in big ways and costing far too much to put right! its down to personal preference but i also think some classics especially type r versions can be very over priced aswell.
