Icon3 I just bought a Type-R

I bought this a week ago. 00 PY with 47k miles on it. Skunk2 cat-back exhaust, coilovers and Pro series Valvetrain with stock ITR cam, CTR Pistons, HID's, Exedy clutch, AEM FPR and gauge. Clean Title and extra set of tires. I paid $13.5 for it which is NADA Clean Retail. It has a few blemishes but i expected that for a 9yr old car. Other than that everything is in excellent condition.

P.S. IDK why the previous owner installed PCT's

Sorry for the blurry pictures,its from my phone.

I believe that is some sort of acronym or slang for CTR pistons.

If it also has valve spring & retainer upgrades, I would assume the car had cams installed at some point as well. Regardless, with the bump in compression, be sure the car is tuned on something.

I read in the all motor forums PCT means CTR pistons. I think it's stamped on the pistons themselves. The guy before me said he had endyne stage 2 cams.

Congratulations. I paid 1k more then you did back in June for an 01 PY ITR with 100k on it. You made out REAL well, atleast compared to me. Give that R a good detail, and keep it real safe, you now hav a ricer/theft magnet. Goodluck with it.

Will this be your daily form of transportation or do you have a beater? If we can enlighten you on the theft risks of owning this car just ask. Please forgive me if you are aware of them. Better safe than sorry.

CONGRATS on the pickup!

You mean badge number? lol. Production number would be about the only part of the VIN that you couldn't figure out. I'm sure he doesn't want to share that.

I think it's 1437 something like that. Yea I'm aware of the dangers of owning one haha and no it's not a daily driver. Just something to mess around with and cruise in. I need to get it tuned for those ctr pistons still. I haven been driving it like a grandma.

So what does it feel like driving an ITR? I'll never forget the day I first drove mine. That was two days after I bought it. lol! The wife was the one that drove it home.

Don't loose control of any of your bodily functions. The caR can have a strange affect on some people.
