It's BNR. You or he may have mixed it up, thinking it's "B & R" which to the unfamiliar individual can later become "R & D"

BNR's are great i wish i could get my hands on a set. The guy selling the car doesn't know what he's talking about, There is no such thing as an Apexi VFCR, there is a apexi vafc but that's a vtec controler.

Jesus - is this what IM or text messaging at an early age does to a person's ability to write English?

Dude, try some sentences. They're good.

Oh, yeah, LOL.

My humble advice...you have NO IDEA what you may be facing if you're buying simply by looking at an ad, and kicking the tires. The motor could be blown for all you know, and they could be stock turbos and you wouldn't know the difference. It may not have a stock boost pattern, which means the turbos could be blown. The car could have tons and tons of problems man.

I'm not asking you cuz I wanna buy the car; I'm offering cuz I know I got REALLY REALLY lucky and picked up a pristine perfect car w/o knowing any better a few years back. Many haven't been as lucky, and soon afterward put their newly purchased FD up for sale w/ a blown motor and leaking turbos

Not jumping on you, but you don't know how unreliable, complex, and intricate these cars are. If you don't know what you're looking for, you may be in for the biggest bank-buster in your LIFE. FD's are the largest money pits I've seen in my life...and that's a PROMISE.
