Type r cost nowadays

[scooby doo]

What's the going price for a v3/4 type r ?
Been out the loop for ages , wanted a spec c but house has 100% crushed that dream!
So I'm looking at type R's or RA
Been searching the jap auctions past week, so tempted to import one threw a agent, couple late v5/6 sti with 80/90kmh at £2500 around £4500 once here on the road

What auction sites are you looking at. I wouldn't mind a scoot around.
Been looking myself on Pistonheads, Autotrader etc.....but price varies a lot depending on condition.

I would only go Type-R though.
I don't like the back to basics of the RA (a classic is basic enough) or the Blue front seat covers on the V5/V6.

Trouble is I don't want to have to do, all over again, what I have done with mine.
I have considered losing 2-doors, and getting Type-R rear panels put on. But I expect the price to do that would be astronomical.
Or I could just buy Byte's Type-R

Those blue seats are horrid!!!
Was just google Scott, looked and signed up, a lot of people on different forums putting there costing a up etc so you can actually get a good idea what all in all there's to do and pay,

Type r is the one, but if if honest a lovley straight stock v6 sti would be a nice car as has all the type r features just two extra doors lol

Take the seats out for some Recaro Pole positions and it would look great

This site is pretty good (will need to register for access to the auctions).....

4 door cars have smaller apertures than 2door, so you cant simply use a 2dt qtr panel........

You could, but it would be a bit draftee......

I wasn't planning in going into the details of the other requirements i.e Doors, B-pillar strengthening bars (although there are new cheap one on ebay at the moment), inner panels, glass etc....

Depends on what you are looking for in spec wise I collect my type r v3 in January and comes with brembos all round , 18" P1 alloys , full decat exhaust , bc coilovers, hks mushroom filter , dump valve mixture of k/mph but works out to be 90000 miles full service history and comes with original docs in japanse and its near mint condition and got it for a bargain price as he wanted to sell it without hassle of the buyer haggling so I gave him his asking price .
