Im sorry, I dont often do this but Im shocked by what I have just read ........
Right, so they have mysterious and invisible parts in Japan that we cant get here do they? As far as Im aware there is nothing other than a remap that will see any kind of gains, certainly not any parts that you cant see. The only major dynamic differences between the JDM cars and UK is the fuelling map and a few geometry tweaks, there certainly isnt any invisible box of tricks available to put another 40hp on a car and theres nothing on a JDM that isnt on a UKDM that would do it either
The Orange one Im guessing is Busters, which is well thought out with quality parts and beautifully executed. It doesnt have cheap ass parts and a dubious widearch kit and look like its been thrown together by Stevie Wonder, your average man on the street would be hard pushed to recognise them as the same car even if they were parked side by side.
What, lower than this?
Ive never struggled ........
So what? I went past a 430 on a trackday a while back, it doesnt mean my car is faster though, just means the performance is more accessible (IMO at least).
Im sorry, but people read this board for information and by my reckoning youve given totally inaccurate information about import cars, insulted Buster and his car, then given more dodgy info about widearches and rolling roads and finally a poor example of gauging a cars pace on a trackday. Its not a biggie on its own but Ive seen people pick up information like this, start spreading it about and before you know it people are telling you that you are wrong about your own car.
