Why we chose this car
In our words.
“Spec R, six-speed, helical LSD, and a body that has never been welded. The front bumper repaint is honest and we priced it accordingly.”
The S15 Spec R is the one to have: SR20DET with the bigger turbo, six-speed, helical LSD. This Pearl White car came through TAA Yokohama in February at grade 4/B.
We replaced the worn control arm bushes, serviced it, and left the rear quarter dent alone rather than filling it; you can see it in the photos and in the condition diagram.
