and the reason for the s and not the R. money wasn't a problem i could have had the type r, but i do over 500 miles a week in my car and the R would drink to much. also this is my first diesel, and i must say i am impressed with the tourque and this is pre re-map.

i have already got type s side decals the only R stuff i have in the car is the floor mats and tax disc holder (but you can't really see those badges) and they were ebay copies. the real stuff is twice as expensive and they don't do it with the S badge on.

i have no intentions of building a fake diesel R, i plan to build a real Diesel Type S GT with all the body extras that it should ahve come with.
Very well put.
Good luck with the transformation Click the image to open in full size.
