Just off the top of my head, I think there was a new ecu in 96 (plus a few other things. someone help me out, did they eliminate the precat that year?) and a host of upgrades in 99....new turbos, etc. Obviously, the later the year, the better the car, and if I were you, I'd go for one of the higher horsepower models (280+hp).

 

This link out of New Zealand should tell you about the changes to the '99 models which should also be available, or importable, for people in the UK. Good luck,and let us know what you come up with.

yo...do you like anime??
if you do and know a lot about anime contact me or something...i love anime

by the way...i already have a car, a 1998 mustang 3.8, and i dont really speed, nor race at all....i just like FDs and Supras since i was like 12, thats why i wanna get either one, their my dream car
im gonna be 17 like in 4 moths, and i might have enough to get a supra, but the car that i llike the most is an FD, but i dont have enoguh to maintain it

 

A Mustang is no FD. I had the ability to get a sweet car when I was 17, but waited until I was 20 and got an FD. my brother got an Prelude when he was 16. also, when I got the car I almost immediately spent another $8500 on tires, engine rebuild turbos, etc. this was just replacing stock and getting the car to run good. if you get an FD make SURE you have it tested out thouroughly. my engine when I got it had bad compression. and a leaking turbo. So expect to pay for alot of mainainence/repairs unless the previous owner pampered it. but it was the only one in MN for sale at the time too. I just knew I had to have a car that was in Need for Speed.

 

My car was a 95 black touring, and during the one year, I didn't have ANY problem with the car at all, but sure about 93s.
