- Valve springs
Scroll down to the english section on specifications you can see that the colour coding for Tomei VG valve springs is Blue. The specs also include dimensions so you can check against the springs you have. http://www.tomei-p.co.jp/manuals_data/pdf/valve_spring.pdf http://www.tomeiusa.com/_2003web-catalogue/e095_valvespring.html There seems to be two part #'s for VG springs 13203R800 and then TA304A-NS07A. Perhaps the earlier(?) springs used different colours. You could check this with Tomei.- Chameleon front end tidy up

I'm using Redline MT-90 Gearbox Oil & Redline 75W90 Differential Oil (they are the weights recommended by Redline) and Mobil 1 0W40 for the engine. You will get many opinions on the engine oil to use!- Suggestions on new Alarm
When I had my Ai606 professionally installed I got a Toad certificate and a warranty. I'm not sure how that works for a DIY install or if it even really matters in practice.- Suggestions on new Alarm
I have the Ai606 installation manual if you decide to go with that and DIY.- Suggestions on new Alarm
Not in my UK spec. I had a (very poorly fitted) alarm from another manufacturer when I bought the car from Nissan. I can't remember the make but it wasn't a Toad.- Suggestions on new Alarm
I have a Toad Ai606 alarm/immobiliser with an extra switchable microwave cabin detector for when the targas are off. Been pretty reliable since it was fitted back in '01.- Coloured wiring diagram.
