I have noticed one weird thing... According to EPC there are two types of GT-four hood. 53301-20550 and 53301-20500. I have tried to ask for price from local Toyota and have found interesting thing.:

53301-20550 -> JDM ST205 hood only. Available for all JDM ST205 models (94-99). Price €930.
53301-20500 -> JDM WRC model hood, available only for 9 months of 94 in Japan. And the same hood is used for all European ST205 models! Price €1030...

Anyone here knows what is difference between them? I have only one idea... it's absence of air to cowl guide hood spoiler for JDM hood. What do you think? Thanks for opinions...

When I got my ST-205 hood, it had the hood spoiler holes already. I thought they all had them. I don't think Toyota would charge that much for punching a few holes. tongue.gif
