Default STI Type R or STI 7 JDM ??

hi guys

can anyone tell me the main difference between them?? how now confirm that i am getting a newer STI next after selling my STI 555 VLTD. have seen a few type r's i think they looks , but the prices are abit high for a classic IMO....

i am thinking of getting a STI Type R V3/4 or STI 7 JDM.
also can anyone tell me whats the top speed of a type r?? or what RPM when doing 80mph?? also are the engines on the Newage stronger???

many thanks
kevin

Type R's seem to be holding there price very well, especially the WRC Limited. I would go for a V5/6 as these can be tec 3ed using the original ECU.
My Type R ltd does about 150 mph and rev's at just over 4000 @ 80 mph.
