ain't my footprint!
These are the photo's given to me by my import agent, thus it's some oiks foot on the seat.
Also, the tacky stickers and white gearknob have gone. The white gearknob was there as there are some rather funky mini uv lights on the dash, above the center heater vents. They do look rather good, plus you can face them forward out of the windscreen and if you press the button quick enough they sort of flash, which might be usefull

frisby:
ah, so you've read the import mag then! I must say that I had a quick look at it and the spelling was appaling! BTW - I *did* consent to the article, thought I'd never see it in print though. Also, was promised a copy of the mag, which I've not seen yet *sniff*
AWD:
hmm, think it's the cable from the turbo timer, if you look to the right hand side of the cable you should kinda see a little black box which is the TT, so I guess it's that cable. Certainly aint hanging down there at the moment though.
It *might* be to do with the raybrig switch (see interior pic, look where wash/wipe stick is, see little back box which looks as though it's stuck on back of stick, but is on dash) which apparently controlled some extra lights on the front.
There is some heavy duty wiring laying about the engine bay and it flows through to the front bumper, and on the front view pics you can see it sticking out, and I'm told that it probably had additional lights on it in Japan. I like to think that the beast was part of the midnight run club, and thus had the extra lights to aid seeing at high speed.

I would not call it dirty.
IMHO a black car is the hardest car to keep clean.
Did you find out where you got that pea shooter back box from ??? you need a 'MANS' exhaust, I use HKS for Men on mine. Give small animals [foxes etc] a hidy hole at night.
LOL
Nice car, excelent rear for light, is it legal ??

Barge,
Pea shooter is an apexi (or apex) N1. If you look at the pics on my site, there are some stickers on the rear bumper one of which says N1 and it's right above the exhaust.
As for the rear foggie. Yeah, it's pretty cool. As for legality, well, the beast does have a valid MOT, so I would guess that it is legal as a working rear fog is required to pass the MOT (is this correct?)
*EDIT*
Doh! don't bother going to my site. The pic you want is the first pic of the car at the top of the thread. The edit is coz I am thick and don't read my own posts!
