Default 2nd day owning Type R......

Diffently like turn out of places and using the differential. Dam, that spoiler sits right in my line of sight. Kinda grinds just a tad in high rpms from 3rd to 4th. I really just cornering in the midrange, it feels like a japanese go kart. I think i might need new transmission mounts, something sways under the car when i'm going 7 and under. Could it also be the a/c? These cars are awesome.

Welcome. What year did you buy? Is it still covered under warranty. If so, the synchros may still be covered. Best wishes.

Welcome to ouR board.

Get a damn good alarm (Clifford) and make sure you have a nice garage to store your R in.

Good luck.

wow, a '97 is just a good piece to have. Just never sell it. I mean, what's the count on how many are left at now?? I'm sure it's in the 300 range. Good find. -C
