Hey guys i got my 97 JDM Type R 5-6 months ago seemed like it was in good shape but once i got down to it, it needed a lot of body work and a full repaint. I also decided to do some engine work and clean up the interior.

I just wanted to introduce myself to the Honda-Tech/Type R community. I got out of the Marines in 2008 and now i'm a police officer in Indy. I've always wanted a Type R Rhd and am making sure this one gets done perfect with no shortcuts.






























Just had the wheels powder coated gloss black!





Hope you guys like it, ill be posting more pictures soon as the progress continues. Should be done by the end of May.

 

not all the pictures are showing up.

 

Fixed sorry about that first time posting pictures on here.

 

Looks great, keep up the updates.

 

Bring her out to EXPO!

 

looks like its going to be a sick build.

 

Good job!!! Diggin the wheels!!

 

Thanks guys, will have more pics up tomm.

 

Shes coming along!

 

Where exactly is Indy? Were you a US Marine?

 

Indianapolis, Yeah i got out in 2008 was infantry 0311.

 

Good for you man. It is near impossible to get in in jersey without a bachelors degree and a vets preference.

 

+1 for a law enforcement officer with an R!

 

Lots of TLC and she be back on the road! GLWB

 

Car will look great but god those wheels are ugly. Sure if they were Konigs most people would feel the same way

Haha Thanks Guys, I personally like the Starks. Ill be posting more pics up in the next week or so after stuff gets painted.
