Hello &  How do you compare it to the type R then? Might be useful to update your info so we know what MPS you got and your location? As for modding...I've still to do that, but one day...! Lots of helpful guys and info on here though... Enjoy!

Yeah,Mk1 or Mk2 ? I was heading home on the M42 last month (steady 70,cruise control on) and noticed a Civic approaching in the rear view mirror like an exocet missile.Thought it was prob a type R. He then slowed right down,moved into my lane and sat behind me for about 4 miles.He was defo checking my wheels out Reccy acomplished,he then took off like a rocket sled again

cheers guys
The type r is a really nice car to drive, handles really well, takes off quickly, even tho it aint supercharged or turbo`d, the downside is, to take it to the same power output as the mps, ur spending silly money to do it, and my pockets just dont go that deep as im in the middle of rebuilding my skyline after blowing the engine up lol
ive already got 1 mod for when i get it and thats the wind defectors, as for other mods,it`ll be research to see what i can and cannot do, before anything is done, AND MONEY lol
