The car is finished in black and features a power-operated antenna, fender vents, dual exhaust outlets, pop-up headlights with replacement covers, and R1-specific front and rear spoilers. The seller states that dents on various body panels were repaired, some of which required body filler and paintwork. Close-up photos of the finish are provided in the gallery below.
Silver-finished 16″ five-spoke wheels wear 225/50 Falken Pro GS Sport tires. The R1 suspension components were replaced with Tein Flex Z coilovers, and additional work performed as part of the refurbishment included flushing the brake fluid and installing aftermarket cross-drilled brake rotors along with ceramic-compound brake pads.
The cabin features seats upholstered in black cloth with synthetic suede inserts. Appointments include air conditioning, power accessories, and aluminum clutch and brake pedals in addition to an Alpine stereo connected to component speakers, dual amplifiers, and a JL subwoofer. The air-conditioning system was recharged with R12 refrigerant as part of the refurbishment. The seller notes that the outer bolster of the driver’s seat is worn, and an aftermarket trunk mat and floor mats will accompany the car.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 180-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 7,500-rpm redline, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer shows 37k miles. An October 2009 entry on the Carfax report lists an odometer reading of 43k miles, and the seller states that the gauge cluster was repaired to address intermittent faults with the odometer display and the oil pressure gauge. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement twin-turbocharged 1.3L rotary engine was installed and fitted with an aftermarket downpipe in place of the pre-catalytic converter by Rotary Performance of Garland, Texas, as part of the refurbishment, and the car was equipped from the factory with a front strut tower brace and additional oil cooling as part of the R1 package. Additional work performed by Rotary Performance includes installing the following replacement components:
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a Torsen limited-slip differential. The clutch and the clutch master cylinder were replaced in preparation for the sale.
Service invoices from Rotary Performance of Garland, Texas, total $18,780.51 and can be viewed in the gallery below.
