Insurance and parts no difference in cost in reliaty. TYpical myth dealers used to say to try to get you to buy a uk car rather than import. Other than the burble the JDM is a better option

nope, it's all 2,5's, even the 2015 ones have issues. Already seen 3 2015's having rebuilds due to ring land or HG. Only revision they have done to the engine is ridges on the outside of the liners to bond better with the block. Does it def have to be a hatch or estate?

what super unleaded you running it on? needs to be vpower or tesco 99. other supers tend to be 97 or 98 ron. if it was mapped for 99 could be damaging the engine

welcome. who fitted your steering wheel on the wrong side? only joking :D

hindsight is a wonderfull thing :( hopefully get it sorted soon and lesson learnt and move on

given up trying, you can lead a horse to water but you cant make em drink

yeah yeah, same colour as my type R. wasn't meaning it was resprayed. Cool Grey 86F

let me check down the back of the sofa,,,,,, hahaha

alot of folks find out the hard way unfortunately. He convinced allot of people who don't know better that hes good. The amount of people around now who have owned them for 5 mins and think they know how to tune them is unbelievable. It's amazing how many questions get asked that were asked years back yet people wont accept the answer. He was advised about road testing cars years ago but just wants to make as much money as possible. it takes at least an hour (assuming it goes totaly perfect) to map a car and some cars can take hours and hours. Also given he does alot of road mapping you have to ask what insurance he has. your own personal car insurance does not cover you while the car is being mapped.

It's an sti in same colour as RB5 matey

blokes enept. pure and simple

Did he not road test it?

hope you get it sorted matey :( why i get so passionate about threads, hate seeing people being ripped off.

i;ve not had much to do with mids for many years now. not what it was. Alot of saturdays owners meet up for a social up at scoobyclinic at chesterfield.

no idea what happened with the quotes then :S

wow, should try and see if you can chuck a cheeky offer at the owner if there not bothered about it
