i wonder if the STB will be interchangeable

is there anyone on the forum that can possible get me this stage21 lip? Anybody know japanese and how much this thing runs for?

I love how its burning gas just sitting there!:lol: note that in one of the pictures the gas light goes on!!:lol:

look at the mileage from the two pictures

Sato Tatsuya any details for the redline from the three pics that you post above? like Type...

Notice how the gas goes down in each picture until the Empty light goes on? I lol'ed at that. :p:

i like the pop-off for the dipstick!

i like everything beside the exterior..........

the new one just............lost all the good looking factor. the headlight the side mark the fender vent

the old one looks better to me

And that was just in the couple of minutes it took to warm up... lol

no, sorry! I can't read Japanese, because I was not raised in Japan.
Sorry! :(

I have been looking for something like this for three years now...

ah if you look at miles, there is 100 miles diffrence from pic 2 to pic 3.

LOL its NOT MILES its KM. Its in Japan LOL. If u convert that its only 100 to 200 ish miles on it.

I love that green color

I love that green color paint job

HAHHHAHAHAHH truuuuuuu

x2 I wish I could fine one like that

no prob ;) just confuse from the pics, i thought it was the redline :)

Just curious, how come I cannot post anymore images from mikara.car?? I am doing the same thing I did before, but this time the images aren't show up...=S

maybe they're getting to much traffic and have locked it down on their side? :dunno:

found out the red zone info from this site: http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/10/u...sale-in-japan/

- New variable red zone system. The tachometer red zone moves in three stages according to the engine temperature. This prevents over-revving immediately after startup when the engine is cold.

another good changes they have made with AT :)

- The gear ratios in the six-speed manual transmission-equipped grades have been lowered to improve off-the-line acceleration. Model grades with the six-speed automatic (Activematic) transmission feature a newly developed Direct mode. When driving with the gear selector in Drive (D), Direct mode allows the driver to temporarily change gears using the paddle shifters on the steering wheel without having to switch to Manual mode. This provides a boost in acceleration or engine braking to aid certain situations such as overtaking other vehicles or descending steep gradients.

sound good to me ;)
