Default Got my Type R!!!

Rest assure that 01 Type R #862 is in good hands. Picked it up yesterday from, get this, a Honda dealership. Already had Sprint springs, AEM cold air, Magnacor wires, and clear bumper lenses. It handles wonderfully and is just as quick. I am 100% happy. Now i understand what u guys are talking about. Pics are coming soon.
p.s. may the si rest in peace

Replace the sprint springs with spoon springs. Hopefully your shocks aren't blown yet.

Good luck,
CB

Congrats! Welcome to Club R where our guests are privy to 8400 RPM (or more) and the lovely whine of VTEC all day and all night long

Pic? Color? Year?

Kyle - who wishes they offered silver on the USDM ITRs....

Well as of now i dont have a pic yet. The color is phenoix yellow and its a 2001 #862. I will eventually change the springs and get some struts. I paid a little more than i should have but i really wanted it. It wasn't too bad though i got it for $22,500. What spring/strut combo should i go with? All info will be appreciated and thanx for the welcome. I will talk to u guys later.

Yellow is cool! FBP ITR's are rare in my neck of the woods. $22k isn't too bad. Low miles? As far a suspension is concerned you'll have to ask yourself what you'll be doing with the car. The stock set-up is really fine for most. I recently made the switch from mainly autocrossing to track events. So now my R is sitting on jack stands waiting for new BuddyClub coil-overs. They'll be overkill for the street but I'll have great adjustability for the track which is where the car will now spend most of it's time.

"Yoshi" put together a great compilation of H-T info. You should check it out... http://www.socalitr.com/HTlinks
