so long story short ive always dreamed of owning a type r and was recently building a ukdm itr rep until i stumbled upon this bad larry here on honda-tech so i took the ride to new jersey from mass to go buy it.
future mods i plan on getting ukdm tail lights and rear bumper, mugen m7 for wheels, interior i plan to run a gathers carbon faux radio, recaro srd conffetti, oem itr back seats takata seat belt harness and recaro covered head liner, as for motor plan on putting a jdm type r swap back in it. heres some pics enjoy and thanks for viewing my post ill have more updates as the build goes.

Damn cant wait for the car to start running its in really good shape goodluck bro

 

yea thats whats im aiming for
thanks man

 

Nice pickup bro!

Stupid ?'s, are you keeping JDM front or going back to the UKDM theme you had before?
G/L on the built.

 

i was but i changed my mind and dont want to ruin a real jdm type r so ima keep it og all though i do plan on putting the back bumper and rear tail lights from a uk itr sold mine but looking to buy a set and a back bumper

 

Is it a legal import?

 

im in the process of figuring all that out but to be honest i could careless if it is or isnt i dont plan on selling it this is my dream car and i wouldnt mind only being able to bring it to shows or the tracks, as far as i know it was brought in by jdmspeedworx usto be gregs

 

heres some pics of when it was in cali

 

just got some hid head lights for the r heres some pics got a crazy deal too only paid 199 shipped

 

Those are Sir-G headlights. OEM HID 98+ headlights would look much better.

Read the grey market thread that is stickied and it will tell you all about the legality of your vehicle.

 

Why is this an issue to you people whether legal import or not I could give 3 ***** I got a daily driver this wil be my show car, race car so I dont plan on driving it

 

well its better than my cracked head light later on ill worry bout better looking ones these will do for now

 

I think they're trying to be helpful....
