Looks very very clean, and a decent wee spec list too, :nice:
 
Very tidy mate nice find :nice:

That colour blue must have been popular in japan when these were new ive seen a few in it.
 
Looking good man, always been into SiR's :nice:
 
Cheers guys, it is a clean example, had almost given up looking before finding this one, was not to far away either

Very nice and clean buddy.

Baller set of rims would finish it.

Thanks, Yeah would like a change of wheels, the enkeis are nice but not really my preferred style of wheel

Very tidy mate nice find :nice:

Thanks! Yeah seems to be a fairly popular colour, although some people think its uncommon, I've seen a few though, it's dark amethyst pearl if any one was wondering
 
Thanks for the kind comments, it's easily as much fun to drive as all the other type R's I've owned, :nice:
 
lovely ek4 man

what did you use to underseal, just the brush on waxoil or spray on stuff?? doing the same to my eg9 now tryna decide what to use
