I have the same one, its fantastic. A standard air box is around £40 second hand and you will be able to sell that Simota for about £100

Robin,
Coupe or salloon, £200 on powerflex bushes and £300 on sachs dampers from ECP (You probs get discount) and it will waft like its on air and handle like a Clio182 on steroids with better balance and RWD.
Noise is easy to achieve too, can "make" your own air box.

I personally think the standard M suspension is shocking, way too soft.

I wouldnt say its shocking at all? If its new or not old and crap then it should be fine. Its not a race car, but its useable.
Everyone raves about HSDs on the forums

At the moment, in my opinion at least, it's between this
http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/honda/civic-type-r/honda-civic-type-r-30th-anniversary-2003/1152848
this (although the mileage is high and it's not actually the right colour)
http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/bmw/e36-m3-92-99/bmw-e36-m3-3-0l--1995/1236295
this
http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/celica/toyota-celica-gt4-genuine-wrc-model/1256330
or a Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo, but I can't find a good one for sale.
I think. I'm not sure though, there's so much choice it's hard to pick.
Buying a house was an easier decision than this

Also been considering a 200sx but as you now have to pay £21.99 to view the SXOC classifieds, I've given up.
