Default Update on 01 - #0001

Hey guys -

I'm sure you have seen my thread about selling my ITRs and that has been going pretty well. The one car I am going to keep is 01-0001. She has been in my possession for about 4 years now and has seen the road maybe 2,000 miles.

Originally picked her up with a gsr motor in it ( car was stolen in 03 I think ) - I tracked her once and then decided to swap in a built ls-vtec motor - I hit the track again and this time went off resulting in a bent trailing arm and cracked wheel.

Got that fixed and I drove it just a little bit more until late december when the car shut off on me doing about 10mph on my street. Verdict was a broken valve spring and the car has been sitting since Dec 2010.

My intentions have always been to put an ITR motor back in it and I bought one from my good buddy Chase. Dropped it off to get an oem rebuild on Valentines day and I finally got it back a week ago..... with that said, enjoy.

Poor R


Red DC5 recaros that I have never sat in and the s2000 cluster ( props to American.Graffiti ) that saw maybe 4 miles before the car blew



Old motor coming out -



New motor waiting



No cherry picker so I did the old school drop and slide out method lol



Swapping the JDM ITR tranny over ( notice the cool seatbelt pad I found )



Sliding the motor back in the car



More pictures to come - hopefully she starts right up !

One day I'll make it to an expo event and meet you guys

Doing that without a cherry picker doesn't sound like a whole lot of fun. I'm sure it will be nice to have her running agian. Good luck with the rest of the install!

Not to get off topic, but did you have 4 type R's? May I ask why you are selling the three? Good luck with the car though, it looks great.

Yes I did have 4 and I really didn't need that many.

My goal is to keep this one and have another toy.

May I ask how many miles are on the chassis?
And man that really sucks that the VINs can't be kept the same on #0001.

But good luck on the build, it already looks great. In for more.
