Could someone please tell me whats the difference between the EK9 original and the motorsport base version because Im planning to buy the motorsport version from auction and I dont know whats the difference. I cant find any literature about it on the web..
Thanks..
 
basic seats out of an SI, so no recaros, no airbags, plain steering wheel manual windows,
just a really low spec ek9,, engine is the same,,

i woudl rather go for a normal ek9 than a race base,, race base is bargain basement,
made for the japanese to strip out put a cage an their own seats in to go racing.

not a special or more valuable model in my opinion quite the opposite dont pay a premium for a base model thinking its something special

here is a pic of a race base interior.........

Agreed, Base is for the people that plan to turn it into a RACE car so no they buy a cheaper version since they are going to replace seats/steeringwheel anyways and add a cage. Race base should be CHEAP, i say at least 2000 cheaper than a normal ek9 or its not worth it.

Lol, alot of private sellers sell it MUCH higher than a normal EK9. Just because it's call a race base. :nono:

hit the nail on the head there i agree with you 100% :nice: :drive::drive:
 
its kinda cooler having a track destined EK9 for the road, especially if you do kit it out proper style!
