Very nice, and despite being down on the power makes more sense and better value than the Cosworth option

Yes 18" and theres no suppliers in the UK. I might try and organise a group buy as a few have requested sets on here and the JDM civic type r's have them on as standard to. Am currently talking to a supplier in Japan ,but the exchange rate is killing everything off.

I'm not surprised... my local importer says currently the 2011 STI would have a price tag of £34k just to make it worth while importing.

Yeh thats right very expensive at the moment it will only be worth bringing in used ones after a year but even then you'd be looking at 32k

Anyone know where I can get the rear light mod from to make them Red instead of the standard lexus style? Do you have to take the clister apart or do you buy new units if so from where?

Iain licho has a company "Shrip Wrap" for them him and though he used to do lights on "Exchange" basis
IIRC
other Companys do a film a mate did them on the Car but far better to pop them out to do job properly
IMHO

I just bought a complete set fella cost me an arm and a leg. I might be putting the front two seats in the R205 so i might have the door cards and rear seats left. Cost me 500,000 yen which would of been 2.5k couple years back ,but because of the bloody exchange rate it come to 3.5k. I might put them aside to put in an RA-R am not sure yet.

There are sets of front seats on ebay for 2.3k from China, but I don't trust them to turn up.

Thats a good price what nic are they in? I should fo bought a damaged car would of worked out cheaper after i sold all the parts ,but a damaged S203/04 costs 10k plus.
Just had a look at them seats and they seem to have a few sets so i would imagine there copys. Theres no actual pics of the seats.
