Very Very nice ! :cool: Loving the gold, is that the Standard Z Gold colour ? Its one of the few colour options limted to the U.S market only, we never got in Europe or Japan.

Advice please
The shocks dont lower the car, the springs do.

jap import
£1k for headgasket change is about right...providing he is having the heads tested and skimmed at the same time. Make no difference wethere its UK or Jap, the cars are identical other than minor spec differences. You can do the HG with the engine in for TT or NA, but its just as labour intensive and potentially more labour intensive as pulling the engine anyway.

Light Steering
Do you have jap clocks with them converted to MPH ? As they make the steering lighter becuase it tricks the ECU into thinking your going slower than you atually are. Also a smaller steering wheel helps.
-
Advice please
They are standard replacement shocks (ie uprated dampners), but not coilovers. The standard suspension top plates should fit onto that shock, as long as nothing is broken, I cant tell from the picture. The way they fit on can be found in the online zed manual. The ebay link to springs does'nt work.

If these
Is yours a UK spec car ? Imports have a smaller water pump pulley which makes them a better match to the smaller crank pulley.
-
If these
Its more 50:50 with 2fast2cool products in my experience. seems to be a quality control issue. The decats pipes are manufactured by Megan Racing and quite a few have had fitment issues, myself included. Pipes had to be heated and bent to get them to clear, the other side was'nt as bad but was still a struggle.

If these
These are a fairly popular upgrade, however I would not recommend fitting one from ebay...they do not have a Timing mark on them ! Plus the woodruff key does not fit properly and you have to grind away part of the pulley to get them to fit! I binned my ebay version becuase of that. If they cant get simple things like that right then I would not trust them being balanced. Danny@DTA does better versions, and there is SGP, Unorthodox..etc The biggest gain from them is engine/throttle response. Qquicker revving and when combined with Lightweight flywheel and lightweight prop the acceleration difference is very noticable. They are a LOT lighter than the Standard crank pulley. 0.6kg vs 3.5kg The other pulleys are not heavy so not worth changing IMO.

Jap, J-spec, Japanese
LOADS of evidence from sources : 1. the fossil record of change in earlier species 2. the chemical and anatomical similarities of related life forms 3. the geographic distribution of related species 4. the recorded genetic changes in living organisms over many generations and ofcourse there is more to science than just Evolution.

Im excited!
The Auto engine does boost up 1-200 rpm quicker but you get far more slip from the autobox at the same time, The manual car should feel a lot more responsive. eg. If you were side by side at 40mph in the appropriate gear and both hit the throttle the manual car should instantly pull ahead of the Auto.

company car advice
Im not sure how you work out what car value you get. My previous car allowance was £450 a month, and that got me a car to value of around £20k I had a company car for about a year, but decided the cash was much better for me and took the extra in my pay packet instead. There are tax implications to taking a company car also.

switch err why?
If they go into the left side of the ECU and not to the ECU connector loom then that will be switch for a dual map setup.
