Pretty sure he is going to keep that car forever.

Pretty sure he is going to keep that car forever. | That's what I thought. Probably 2012 when I last saw it. Oil leaking and traction issues so he only got one session in. He listed it way back in 2010 for $40k. Glad he's keeping it |

You might see a PY ITR in a future episode of a locally shot tv show
well the whole story with that ITR in the superstreet mag... ask around.
I've long kept my mouth quiet over the boards. maybe some of you saw shots fired on IG though haha. it involved domkouki of NO RUSH, stickydiljoe... couple others
meanwhile, don't want to make this thread make jasonturbo too happy with the hating.

Werd up , I'd consider myself a purist and the best way to experience them is close to stock, the way Honda designed it.
On another note, It pain me to see non R's running R running gear and parts. An authentic R is forever gone. There must be no more R's left in Japan, look at all the shops in the states selling r swaps and 5 lugs like Hmotors... Just brutal. I don't know of another car in history that's been canabalized so hard.
And another note , I do have a problem with fake R's or imitation R's with R badging. I feel it cheapens the brand , it's no different then girls rocking fake handbags.

Loi from Loispec is current building a Milano Red ITR from a PY shell. Pretty amazing work and attention to detail. I have no doubt that it will be top quality once completed. Perhaps e.lo! knows more than I as he is pretty tight with them.

Personally, I like the US spec front end more.
Give me a Champ White stock US Spec front end with a stock ITR lip and add a splitter.
Suspension, 15x8 wheels and sticky rubber and I will die happy.
I do like the wing that Tofu had on his car. That may be one of the only obvious mods I would want.
