I hope to this year. No more heel/toe due to metal ankle but I should put up a good fight :badpokerface:

SumAznGuy 02-23-2016 09:59 AM

Damn you guys. No ITR here. Sad.

Just gonna have to try to run you guys down in a B18C1 CRX, if I ever get my lazy ass to do the swaps.

I don't know any of the Type R guys who do Auto-X.
Personally, I would be bored.

It's from a 2007 injury but I lost quite a bit of articulation so I cannot perform the motion any more. All good though as the ITR trans is pretty stout so it doesn't seem to mind helping with my deceleration. LOL!

Haven't installed them yet. I'm thinking sometime next month. I'll keep you posted :thumbsup:

I did. :okay:

come join us at the May/July event down at the ridge

you don't have to participate in the event itself

come chill with the ITR guys - do a group photo, sit in the ones that are attending (GC8, E.Lo, Kevinyong and some other ones) - since theres quite a few Type-R's that did sign up for May event

seeing how prices are in the US, i wonder if it will end up going across the border.

tofu1413 02-25-2016 10:01 AM

hard to believe the interior itself is 3k+ .........

Akinari 02-25-2016 01:20 PM

May have saw Touringteg's ITR driving on W Georgia NB today, had a paper "C" hangar on the rearview mirror. Had the red interior, totally stock, mint as hell. Unless it was another one mint LHD ITR with red interior?

thumper 02-25-2016 01:21 PM

i thought the car was still on the island? not 100% mint unfortunately... some cosmetic paint issues and minor 1/4 panel rust.

SumAznGuy 02-25-2016 01:45 PM

His car is on the island.
I've seen a few red interior ITR's in Vancouver and I know MPR has one too.

fix the rust soon...i'd hate to see a clean CDM 01 get eaten.

What's your next car? (I see both the 993 and R listed)

thumper 02-25-2016 01:57 PM

someone refresh my memory: isn't there supposed to be a rubber gasket with a stainless steel strip inside that is supposed to protect the rear fender lip? i think i see it on one fender, but i don't see it on the other one...

Rear fenders have a rubber piece that slips over the lip to "protect" it.

Really they just trap water and accelerate corrosion.

SumAznGuy 02-25-2016 05:29 PM

Not the best offset for ITR's but 5x114.3 wheels in a 15 inch are pretty rare nowadays.
Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2

TouringTeg 02-25-2016 05:42 PM

The car is in Victoria in my garage. Next car I am not sure. I will prob keep the 993 if this sells first.

Just looked and the rubber was removed on the driver side by someone. The passenger rear still has the rubber cover and has more corrosion.

That price is the craigslist testing the waters price. Remember thats 16k USD so it could go to the US who love the interior.

That said I would rather this go to an RS member who will enjoy the car and will offer a nice discount. Pm me if you want to buy it :)

DEADBEA7 02-25-2016 06:20 PM

Reading this thread makes me miss my old ITR. I've always wonder what happened to it since I sold it to a guy in Richmond a few years ago to help pay for the M3 I switched to. The car had a CF hood and trunk lid, Mugen twinloop and an old Momo Sistema steering wheel. Curious if anyone has any ideas to its whereabouts now or if its even alive :(

Modified 1990 BMW M3 | Bring a Trailer

$18,950 = $25,600 is a joke for that. That woulda sold for $12,000CAD 5 years ago.

Not quite an apple to apple comparison but ITR's are on the rise and people are buying them up in the US. The exchange rate really changes the market up here.

Up here $21,000CAD with 162,000kms and a touch of rust sounds like a pipe dream but.......

In the states $15,500USD with 100,000 miles and clean title with a little bit of rust sounds like market value.

The big question is Are US buyers shopping up here or does the importation costs and possible headaches make it not worth while?
