No such thing as a version anything uk car, that just confuses the issue.
Bug and blob eye UK cars have STI "forged" pistons, just dont confuse these with anything like cosworth pistons because they are not in the same league.
JDM bug eye cars have sti "forged" pistons, JDM blob eyes (twin scroll cars) dont.
None of the hawkeye cars have STI "forged" pistons.

Tony

PS, due to the confusion factor, here is a list of all car versions after the MY00 STI version 6!

Errrrrm none!
