Which Type R is it?
The latest one or is it silver with Red R in the middle

Alpine SWR-12D4 <- Latest one / 1,000 watt RMS

Alpine SWR-1242D <- Old one / 500 Watt RMS (If i remember correctly)

Alpine SWR-1243D
- 12" subwoofer with dual 4-ohm voice coils
- Kevlar reinforced pulp cone with Santoprene rubber surround
- Cast aluminum frame with perimeter venting
- Frequency response: 23-500 Hz
- Power handling: 300-600 watts RMS (300 watts per coil)
- Peak power: 1,800 watts
- Sensitivity: 85 dB
- Top-mount depth: 6-3/8"
- Sealed box volume: 0.65-1.25 cu. ft.
- Ported box volume: 1.0-2.0 cu. ft.

Alpine SWR-1243D ?
Is it a slim sub or something?

Stock head unit aswell?

I would get something from the Alpine 'X Power' Range.
Only because it has a low level converter built in. So you can run the amp even with the stock head unit
Unless you dont mind other brands

But ideally you just need an Amp that has enough Watt RMS to match the sub.
Which in your case is 600 Watt RMS

consider it a steering enhancement rather than handling mod as in every car ive felt before and after it sharpens the steering feel so in that case its cheap imo

$100-200 to increase steering feel and tightness is worth it

dont bother with a rear one,you wont feel anything

Edit: it does reduce some of the vibrations in the engine bay, but that's about it.
