[/i]OK THIS IS THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY.................

2000 TYPE R CHAMPIONSHIP WHITE

ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE & ORIGINAL WITH 38,OOOKM

NATIONWIDE HONDA ROADSIDE ASSIST

EXTENDED FACTORY HONDA WARRANTY TILL AUG 2005

$32,500 including plates

I have had many GTR's, but for standard car straight from the show room floor nothing outhandles the original Type R, sadly I must make way for a more sedate RX8.

This car will suit the most fastidious buyer, Honda Australia have confirmed there will be no more Integra Type R's officially imported, only serious enquiries please!!!

CONTACT TONY 041777 5252 FOR FURTHER DETAILS

The RX8 is a great car, but does not possess the knife edge handling characteristics of a true assault weapon like the TYPE R, its RAW and involving and possibly the next best thing to a Porsche GT3 for an ultimate track car out of the crate!

Gentlemen this baby has literally just been run in, I have a mate that also has a Type R with 85,000km and this thing just absolutely screams and doesnt miss a beat, regular serviced by Honda. This is true testament to the calibre of engineering that has produced a great drivers car which is now becoming rare to find an immaculate example. :D

Is it true that the Intergra Type-R here is actually the Type-S and real Type-R isn't allowed to be sold here or something like that? Not sure, someone was explaining it to me once, that the one in Japan has 180kw or something?

Nice car, but I you know you can get the current body shape Type-R for about that price so I think you got a bit of bad luck being just on the end of a production cycle there, but good luck.

RX-8 is nice, love them suicide doors!

For the true enthusiast that understands TYPE R's, they would'nt even consider the Pretend TYPE R in the current shape. THE DC2 is the real MCOY and those in the know will not dispute this........ :headspin:

No, its an Integra type R, it says it on the car. LOL, its just like the the S15 in japan, they have 184kw standard, same as the japanese type R's, they are detuned to run out shitty fuels we get. Bummer hey. As nervous said, the DC2R is the real type R, the DC5R is just not upto scratch. GO the DC2R's!!!! Nice example you have there NERVOUS, I dont like the white though, Black or yellow, BTW, mines yellow.. GL with the sale champ! :headspin:

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      My purchase experience was no where near as glorious as yours but still a significant moment in my life! Yeah that's a bit of a dilemma as to whether you bring it back or not!  Obviously a massive waste of time and effort to bring it back if you're only going to move there anyway!

      To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear

      I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.

      No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.
