What makes you say that? The G Reg Private plate? You can always make a car look older with a private plate but never younger.

If it was a REV1 it would have a black headlining unless his gone to the trouble of changing it for a REV2+ as thats when they went from black to grey

Just ask the guy for the VIN number and the buyer could check what REV it is

1997 would make it a rev4.

JDM rev4's had euro spec side repeaters :)

350bhp and no mention of what turbocharger was used (td06 20g maybe :-k ) or injector size 8-[.
And yeah, as pointed out by simpson it has a really high spec engine, hks everthing but no forge pistons :eye:.

It has revision 1/2 seats too, so maybe 97 is the import date, an engine pic and would have been an idea.

If the cars genuine its will worh the money being asked for it. . I always get suspicious when something looks/sounds to good to be true, I would definitely want to have a good nose around the car and see some recites for the work carried out.

Rev 2 was my guess as the tweeter pods and door cards arn't Rev 1 and the seats don't match the door cards.

They look the same as the G-Limited Rev 2 card I fitted to mine
