This is your only option in 1/18 scale.

If you want a 1/43 scale car, Neo make an S2 RS Turbo. Best place is eBay or ModelCarWorld in Germany. They are around £50.

You can't buy a 90 spec RST, your best bet is to convert the bumper yourself using Milliput and lots and lots of patience. I don't think MM do a kit for this.

This is one I made when Otto released the RST.
