Largely stock with only simple modifications, this last of a kind gem is a sound investment. And in 'Active Red', you know it goes faster. PERFORMANCE The 147kW, turbo-charged and inter-cooled SR20DET engine has seen a few miles, she drives better than new. Note that the oil warning light is faulty but this should be easily fixed by an auto-electrician. The standard exhaust has been replaced with a 3-inch pipe and high-flow catalytic converter, good for a few extra kW. Included in this modification is a (as pictured), which enables the current stock tip (to ensure it passes inspection) to be easily switched for your own custom tip (and oh does it sound great!). The stock 16" rims and tyres have been replaced with stylish 18" Fox rims with Bridgestone Adrenaline RE002 performance tyres (225/40R18), rated to 270 kph with at least 3mm of remaining tread all round. With almost perfect weight distribution, low weight and great tyres, this car loves corners. EXTERIOR The exterior is unmodified, except for the addition of a professionally applied, hard clear-coat to protect the red paint (which is why the red colour is so well preserved when others would fade). There were some minor paint chips which I have cleaned and colour-match painted to prevent damage/rust, though I would recommend lightly sanding and re-applying a clear coat (I'm happy to provide 2 cans of clear-coat as part of the deal). There is also a minor dent on the rear left as a result of an imperfectly secured jack). The stock body kit remains and personally I think it looks better than other kits I've seen. INTERIOR The stock tape/radio head unit has been replaced by a Pioneer AVIC-F310BT unit featuring GPS navigation, parrot bluetooth phone integration , CD player, auxiliary and USB input. You can also insert your own micro-SD card for GPS logging and firmware updates. There are newer units on the market, but they remove the main tactile control (which allows volume control/track change etc without taking your eyes off the road).
