That is very nice.

Original bushes?
What mileage was the rebuild done?
What was the HiD conversion done like? Does it have projectors or just retro fitted?
Who mapped the car?
How are the rear arches?

Don't scratch it. I would stick with the type r m8. Newage ain't all its cracked up to be.

depends if you buy a good one, newage is a much better daily driver and more comfortable than my classics were

Ha ha, completely didn't realize it was you.

The wheels are great! Spent a day cleaning them up properly. Not convinced by the lower profile tyres but that's not a problem as such.

I really shouldn't look in this section.

Looks like a great set up.

Free BTT for you.

If you can keep it and buy a newage also lol....now im no money man but i have a modded RB5 and decided two years ago i wanted a newage.......and they are two completely different cars!!

The newage is brilliant dont get me wrong, plenty of power, comfy, 6 speed box and brembos as standard on an sti, and a good daily driver, but i still love the classic too, just so much more fun to drive and play about with, raw and loud lol, i just couldnt get rid of the classic and if im getting rid of the blob it will only be to buy a hawkeye

If you can id buy a newage and if at all possible keep that type r too for now in case you dont like the newage!! It looks cool, its in the best colour and it has loads of bits on it to make it a great car, a two door in that colour is pretty rare too, but thats just my opinion, and in todays world with high petrol and running costs etc its maybe just not possible to have the two cars!!

I've done the opposite, come from a 475bhp Blobeye, to an E39 M5 and now onto a nigh on standard Type R, prefer the R 100%

Keep it, love it, be different

If this is a possible sale then should it be in the for sale section?

As far as i know for sale means for sale...

Not by the sounds of it (for whatever reason or another) and should be withdrawn if it's not for sale .
