Re: Tragic-R

Old news....

This is that guy in Austria, who has about a dozen R's or so - correct!?

If so, the frame was bent on this one, I believe, and beyond repair...

EDIT: Found the link from 2009, along with that pic... User name is Austrian Type-R:

Re: Tragic-R

Exactly. The car's parts were put to good use and the destroyed shell was thrown away.

There's more than one shell he's thrown out I'm sure.

Nothing wrong with it.

When we used to go dumpster diving in college, I would get stoked over finding fresh bagels or fruit, but a Type R? Score!

Re: Tragic-R

Where is he nowadays I wonder? I loved his posts. He had a boosted ITR that he ****-kicked at the track with. Not sure if the post is still around but he actually measured the ITR rear quarter panels proving that they were thicker than a base DC.
