First Type-R. Milano UK DC2.

Congrats. Very tidy looking that is. I like the Go Like F... plate :)

I always liked the red DC2s, since there's not many about
 
Small update time :D Re-did my rocker cover in Milano red on my week off :D

Good things never come with bad though, my starter motor solenoid went so the cars stuffed at the mo :/ .. Ordered a new one from CAS, but they got the wrong one. Will update soon!
 
Not posted an update in a while here, so here goes!

So, after my starter motor going and Centrals messing up my orders.. Twice (well done) I got the car back on the road and ordered my 40mm spring kit.

So.. The car was on the road for 4 days, then my LCA bolts decided to break, rendering my car stuck at a mates for another week.. Oh how the mrs went mad!

From that, we decided to continue doing the clutch on a mates EK9.

Pics with kit finally on:

Now, my exhaust backbox has decided to split in two complete sections, nice!

So my new toy has arrived:

I checked the JASMA stamp and apparantly it's an Etching KS exhaust, never heard of them but was cheap on eBay through R-Motion :)

Will get more pics up next week when exhaust is fitted!
 
looks nicely polished and such a strong colour of red for the age, you don't see that often
 
Cheers for the comments everyone :)

Also got the exhaust fitted on Monday, will get pictures up asap!! Had to remove the Beaks bar though with the exhaust going around the LCA it just wouldn't fit :(

If anyone fancies a mint condition Gold Beaks bar just PM, looking for about 50 squids with it being practically new ;)
 
£220 in the end, got it 2nd hand off eBay through R-Motion :) My mate gave me his old JDM cat from an EG SiR too which helped.

Edit - Crappy phone pic up! :D

Few new pics from last night, tripod broke so most of them came out either blurred or full of grain :/

Loving the new exhaust, just need a 98-spec manifold & decat now :D

Also, my mate has just bought himself (though not a Type-R) .. But an EP2. It seems a good base so we'll get some stuff done in 2011 :)

Thought it was pretty cool, though I can't bring myself to eat it :(

Might find a scalextric box to keep it in haha.
 
Ha! Cheers!

Maybe not to everyones taste.. But I like it against the red :p
 
Was second hand on Civiclife bud :) £150, which tbh with the condition I didn't think was too bad at all.
