It's an R1, but you're right it was color changed. It use to be VR, now it's grand prix white from the S2000

That rear shot is great zeroG. Looks really good in that white altogether though.

LOL thanks. I didn't know you had these wheels too, I thought I was the only FD with them. Post up some shop pics!

hehe. I think FDs look great anywhere. If my car was prettier maybe I'd go to car shows... but it's not... so I like to beat on it at the track

Thanks Henry. You were smoking pretty much everyone that day, good job! You were faster than me, and almost everyone else I could see that had an FD.. were you the fastest "street" FD that day? My sways are totally stock. Front has new links though. I have the pettit track pro coil over/shocks (10/8 kgf/mm springs f/r).
