After selling my 2ZZ Mk1, I still kept an eye on Spyderchat and other boards for 2ZZ Spyders in good condition. This one came up in Richmond VA with all the right parts (6-speed transmission with LSD, baffled oil pan, whole bunch of chassis bracing) and a few others that are beyond what I would've liked but not bad to have (lithium-ion battery, 6-puck clutch, Fortune Auto coilovers). At this point, I'm planning on a few livability mods to return the car closer to stock, like swapping out the coilovers for less extreme lowering springs and OEM-stiffness struts; the exhaust is also somewhat hacked together so it needs modifying too. More pics to come, though it could be a while as it's going into storage soon before the worst of the winter hits.
(I think that was a real Type R; at the very least it had the correct five-lug wheels.)
