Type R Club of America

Looking good, keep it coming!

Thank you for clarifying and being upfront. It appears you have spent some time fixing alot of issues that you inherited upon purchase.

Has the Driver side fender been replaced? I dont see a vin tag and the bolts dont look correct.

Also regarding the mats, the only year USDM Type R's didnt come standard with checkered mats was 01.

Im sure we will see this for sale soon somewhere. I highly doubt the buyer will disassemble the car for parts. Either way the title will be forever branded a flood car. Even if another state allows it to be registered, the history cant be erased. The car will never be worth what a clean title car is...

I saw one on Craigslist LA or inland empire recently, check there.

I believe this particular car was listed on Craigslist Las Vegas prior to being purchased and flipped on BAT. I called the seller but it had sold in only a matter of days. Wouldnt of been for me now knowing the repaint. I remember it was listed for $11k.

The thing that surprises me the most about this find is the fact that after all these years, the armrest and badge remained intact with the car. That is the one thing you can never replace on these cars once its gone. Please keep us updated on the build, man there's just something about the 97's!! :...

I recently purchased a badge from Acura and to my surprise they are no longer coming with Acura stamped on it. It’s completely blank. They must have changed these at some point.

Anyone have any experience bidding on copart? Back in the day I know you needed a dealer license. Such ashame it’s just a parts car, but I’m sure there’s a state it could be registered again after jumping through there hoops!

Received my OEM center caps (4) and OEM tool bag today. The bag was just $13 CAD (about $10 USD lol) The caps were $25 CAD each (about $20 USD each!) There are 6 more in stock in Canada with a few more coming in January and February according to my local dealership. https://i.imgur.com/uJxclOr.jpg ...
