Spoon sports TYPE R

[cycosis]

we were just chilln watchn the game, havn a bud
when we drove by the heritage market on blackfoot, and we see this pimpn yellow car, so we casually stroll over , and figure out that its a jdm race car. we then notice the spoon decals, and we get out of the car and this doood asks what we are doing drooling over this compact. he then starts her up , and opens the hood. she sounds GODLY. i think im in love. below are a bunch of pictures that we snagged during our drool fest.
:drool: :drool: :drool:

[rc2002]

Damn! Is that thing street legal?

[cycosis]

some more

[cycosis]

the wheels:drool:

[cycosis]

the engine shot:drool: too bad its NA

[cycosis]

and of course the interior with a carbon fiber seat. all the dash was in japanese and for those who dont know, it had slicks and it sure as hell aint street legal

[rc2002]

Is that a stock airbox? I would've thought that would be one of the first things to go...

I hope we see that at Race City this year! :thumbsup:

[Seanith]

Fuck thats sweet.

[cycosis]

and for fun, heres me sittin in it. that seat hugs your ass sooo nicely:D

[cycosis]

i doubt it we'll see it for a long time gents. its a jdm therefor it has to wait like 15 years before it can race in canada. the guy said it was just there for storage over night and then its headin down to chicago to race.:(

[EK 2.0]

Thats so sweet...I love how purpose built race cars are just that...No extra frills, bolts, fastners items are installed unless needed...

Depending on class entered you cant play with a lot of things like brakes, intake, throttle body and port work...

[DUBBED]

One day I'll build a car like that. One day.

Too bad it probably stops better than you car does with those small rotors. It's JDM, bigger is not better.;)

too bad that you cant listen to well,
it was just racing in B.C some where he said


:nut:

[Idratherbsidewayz]

That car was absolutely mind blowing. It was really loud, and had a very distinct sound. The Bride seats were very comfortable, and the Takata harnesses were pimp. Here's me and the car... :rofl:

[Weapon_R]

This post made my day :drool:

[cycosis]

actually todd, greg posted your pics on another site. theese are my pics so suck it up. and the dude said he wsnt all that sure about the whole BC thing either. i was jsut sayin 15 years because that is what i ahve heard of before........ not sure though. anyone know the truth out there?:dunno:

[bigboom]

actually this car isnt a CF body...the spoon s2000 is...

PM chandler racing and he can tell you a lot more.

[YCB]

thats my store, heritage market.. well i have a store inside.. they have like wheels of dreams there, they have all kinds of stuff, ie) mustangs and old muscle cars..

[Idratherbsidewayz]

Yea from what i understand, the car had been raced previously in BC. It is now being shipped over to chicago for further racing, and maybe even daily driving :bigpimp: (not on those slicks though). It only stayed one night in calgary at Heritage Market. We were reaaallly lucky to see it...

[buh_buh]

that looks like the A&J Spoon Integra from Van.:hitit:

:werd: Yah it is I believe they have a couple of them and some civics as well, great post!

[redx2nv]

AJR car=PIMPNESS!!

The cluster is a stach gauge cluster, used for racing only.

Last i heard they were trying to sell it....:drool:

Aybody want to spot me 50g's?

[blinkme_210]

I've seen this JDM last year at the Edmonton Motorshow.....

[Idratherbsidewayz]

Its been sold to some guy in Chicago...

[cycosis]

well boys, shes gone. i was comin home from school and she was packed away tightly in a semi. its sad that we cant have gorgeous cars like that in calgary.:(

[Nav13]

In the first picture is that blue tape on the bottom of the front bumper? still a pimp ass ride non the less, just wondering if u guys know the story behind it?

[Team_Mclaren]

BEST STREET ENCOUNTER EVER!!!!:drool: :drool: :drool:

i would'bve shit myself sitting inside!!!!:drool: :drama:

[cujo_cjc]

[Idratherbsidewayz]

The blue tape was there, i don't know why, prolly crashed while racing or something...

[gwkwan]

The fact thats it's an imported car newer than 15years old, the removal of the airbag steering wheel and no odometer or even stock gauge cluster for that matter, I think thats it:)

[civic_ek4]

yeah man that car is pimp, but if you goto Vancouver and stop by at aj-racing you will see a whole lot more. when i was there i saw the Spoon S2000 that was amazing.:D

the car raced in the SCCBC league and at the vancouve molson indy

I don't think this car was sold for that much, if i remember correctly it was for like $2x,xxx USD.

[Ferio_vti]

:drool: :drool: :eek: :eek: :love: :love: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[Sky]

Nice I would love to see that in person. That thing would sound like no other TypeR's that are in calgary.

Talking about AJ racing.....their cars are SOOO nice....I'm all over this one. :drool: :drool:

[Idratherbsidewayz]

IIII got to siiit in it....

:eek: :eek: :bigpimp: :hitit:

[MM99lude]

Greg you're one lucky kid!! great find! good thing you guys had your digicam with you!:thumbsup:

[donz]

that is one of the AJ racing type r!!!!! it was sold late last year, they posted that it was for sale on their site. In fact t is probably still on the aj racing website. It is definately a track car, but is licenced in canada, so I don't know why people keep bringing up that 15 rule.

[Idratherbsidewayz]

Everyone was stating the 15 rule because they thought this car was driven on the street. Redlyne you missed the fact that it has slicks on...

[Dj_Stylz]

Damnnnnnnnn:eek: :eek: :eek:

[mutsuraboshi]

CHRIST! that thing was in calgary!
:eek:

Lol, I was waitin for a comment like that... :rofl:

[Roaring G60]

Ha, obliviously someone doesn't know that in a FWD car with front mounted motor, has like 60+% of the weight is on the front axel therefore why would you want to have exessivly large rotors on the rear??ever heard of rotating mass and it's effects on acceleration???? Out east a guy has two Williams Renualt Leguna's from the BTCC up front 13.1''12 piston AP's in the rear 8'' two piston ap's!!!!! Also under the production 2 rules you are only legal to run stock sized rotors!!!

Yeah Anthony has always had some good stuff huh!!!
