Well folks, my type R took a slight overdose of ditch and I havn't the funds to go fixing it right now so have decided to break it. Dibs has been called on the engine. The front right wing, bumper and headlamp are nackered, as is the front right corner of the bonnet but could probably be bate out if someone was handy with ally. There's a small dent in the front left wing as well but nothing major. Couple of arms and things are bent but mostly still intact. There's a girl taking the 4 tyres off me as well but the wheels are still there, 1 is slightly scuffed but there's nothing wrong with them really a good clean up wouldn't sort.

I'm off work next week so I'll be stripping it then and I'll post up pics of everything.

Thanks.

Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking

This was for sale on donedeal only recently if Im not mistaken. Sorry to hear your misfortune.

Froggy might buy the car complete?
 
Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking

Cheers

Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking

@ ckay, thanks buck replied.

@Blitzer09, thanks for the call buck. Give me a ring next week and I'll have them off for you.

@ AndyC, yup froggy made me a good offer alright but I think I'll take me chances breaking it meself. Nope wasn't on donedeal recently afaik, I bought it off a member on here.

@ Donie_typeR, 3rd gear is notchy alright and could use a syncro, crunches going up the box. Box is perfect otherwise, mileage is about 100,000 miles. Give me a ring and we'll chat about price.

Thanks.

Gearknob is a "rare ballerina shift", I'll take a pic of it for you. It's actually quite a nice shifter, has a plaque and everything. The shine is gone off the top of the steering wheel but it is clean and in good nick otherwise. Again I'll post a pic the weekend or monday. The wheel on the car is an airbag wheel I'm nearly sure but I'll confirm for you.
 
Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking

Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking

what exhaust system is on it
[/quote]

There's a stainless TSL downpipe and it's stainless all the way back bar a section where I'd say it was repaired before. It has a nice sound off it. Roars when you drive on but not droney when cruising. I'll take pics if you want.
 
Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking

yeah if u could lad wat repair was done on it before has it got the standard manifold
 
Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking

Yup standard manifold is there anyway, no blows or cracks in it. Going uploading pics now, will probably take a half hour or so, mobiile interwebs ain't great where I am just now.
 
Re: 98 STI Type R, black, for breaking
