Panda "Snow White" ST205, At last I got it ! Options

[Negative]

...Because Toyota hates Americans [yes that means you Canadians too - As I was telling a Canadian friend the other day - you guys ARE American - just not from the US ]

You're wrong - it's just that Americans are too "green" to allow some Japanese cars in the country.
And typically these "some" are the sexiest.

LOL. It was a joke man. I'm just still bitter about not having the option of owning a GT4. "Green" as in save the trees and all that crap? There are also rumors that the American car manufacturers didn't like the competition that Japanese turbo cars were putting on the corvette and similar or that in the case of the GT4 - it didn't meet our crash ratings requirements.
All BS - it's because the ST-185 didn't sell well at all in the US.

Very nice buy. Seems like your car is going to love you as much as you seem to love it. NGK is the $hit! Are those the Ultimate Race Class wires? I have them and I love them. Also Iridium is so nice. Idle and Throttle response is so strong and smoooooth.

Congrats on the purchase mate, nice factory leather too.
Glad to see youve started on the modding path, its long and twisty but very rewarding.
And yeah, white is the fastest colour

[j0e_p3t]

how much hp does a non-jdm gt-four put out? and why does the jdm gt-four have more hp?

[Driveby]

IIRC non JDM 239bhp
JDM 255bhp
JDM has a more aggresive ignition map to take advantage of 100ron japanese fuel

Beautiful car. I am going to be coming to France either this spring or this fall... I'm not sure where Mulhouse is, but I'd love to get together, if you want.

Are those the Ultimate Race Class wires?

They are

Mulhouse is east of France, near Germany and Switzerland. If you are near, it would be a pleasure

I am looking for photos or explanation about how to flush and refill the intercooler coolant fluid, and same for the engine coolant fluid... If you know where I can find this...

Panda, where did you order the wire set from?

I could not find the proper wire set from NGK on my JDM 3SGE. Usually they have sets for 7AFE or 5SFE only.

[Panda]

I ordered them on eBay on this store : http://stores.ebay.com/Sparkplugssource

The exact reference for those wires is "TX69". He did not have this reference listed but I asked him, and he found some for me.
