Looks good Dan but dont forget the bills for this arent likely to be cheap.

Will be a lot of fun but like most Jap cars when you have something go wrong you will be straight onto the forums looking for broken cars to get the parts. Main Dealer prices will hit you harder than if someone trapped your nadgers in a door and repeatedly slammed it.....again.......and again........and again.....and again :)

Look forward to seeing the example you get though. Am shocked the insurance on a single is less than the twin :O

The NA's are still 220/240bhp as standard and not many of them will be standard :) You can get an absolute minter with decent mods (stainless exhaust, induction, nice wheels) for
