Yes ,going to be tough on the wallet if one goes pop.....to be fair though mine never gave an ounce of trouble, it was a 10 year old car with 70k on the clock.. Special MR model only sold in Japan with all unneccessary crap not fitted like cruise control , four wheel steer system , etc.. really was a quick motor and had a lot of HKS stuff on.. still think if your on a budget of up to £6k best sports car going.. Still miss the explosion like accelleration of the twin turbo and the sound of the dump valve
