Default What is this

Just had the heads off the car as you do and the cams have this wrote on them: R4IN
I know the heads have been changed in the past and just wanted to know what heads are on there now. The car is a STi Ra V3

Also the gearbox is like new so has been replaced recently and I believe it is a group N box. Now firstly, how do I tell if it is or not and secondly, what does group N mean ?

A GroupN box:- upto when they were allowed dog conversions (about 99 from memory), the cars had to use stock gearboxes (albeit rebuilt to closer tolerances) so every homolgated car had a GroupN gearbox when it left Fuji - lol, after that it would mean a 5 speed dog boox, even if the car left the factory as a six speed! GroupN is the 'showroom category' - cars used in the PWRC.
