I do know the car was imported into the uk in 2003 so why they would do all that is in 1998 is a bit strange. must be a japanese thing :lol: thanks for having a go at the others as well |

First pic looks like a sticker from a service station/oil change. What kind of oil, date, mileage, how many liters, filter changed or not, etc.
Third pic is just maintence info: right side is when to change stuff: oil, oil filter, air filter, timing belt. left side is just same engine info as in pic 2, idle setting, etc. This post has been edited by 91sofla: Jul 11, 2008 - 8:50 PM -------------------- Apex Silver 2008 EVO MR

cool, thanks for the info
basically i'm just trying to find out what bhp my engine is, I was told by the previous owner it was "10 bhp more than the uk spec, being a jap import" so its either 178 or 183bhp if thats right. I must admit to shouting "holy sh*t" the first time i took it to redline through 1st 2nd and 3rd anyone with similar jap spec cars know any better? |

No idea as to any differences between UK and JDM versions -------------------- |
