had em made from pakistan for £8, about $16, real cheap, saw em on a SS-III but never found em anywhere, e-bay, mod sites, so had a friend make em for me and send em to me.....

it's actually pretty easy, the first time i was in japan (apr 2004-oct 2005) i drove a van for work that was a stick, pretty easy. gears are all still in the same place, just different hand, and by no means am i ambidextrous.

as for shiftin with right, i cany imagine u guyz shiftin with left...there. now we r even.... biggrin.gif
nice, like looking into a mirror with my celica smile.gif

you should do what I'm doing, by tidying up the intake pendulm, wire brush, and maybe some sandpaper on the ACIS mount, and take the head shield off, and show off your stock extractors biggrin.gif

Is it easier to still with that HD clutch?

nice SSII/I spoiler, would one like that fit on mine??

was thinkin of blingin my engine bay, just dont have the time now, with studies and job, definately on my "to do" list, the clutch is allright, but can be punishing if there is too much grip.....as for the spoiler ....do u already have a spoiler on or are u lookin to get one?
(well for starters I'm in NZ, before you send one round tongue.gif) I have one on at the moment (stock 3 feet stand) since yours is a 2 feet stand, I would have to block off my middle holes, my feet are also a slighty different (wider/fatter) style, but I guess its the location of the holes

(could someone confirm this please)

looks like u have a facelift 3 post spoiler, i have a pre-facelift two post spoiler with euro raiser blocks. and yes there is a difference in fittings for both these spoilers.
I like the exterior, normally I don't go for graphics, but I think it looks great with your car. Nice rims too.

hmm. you'd think a 96 SSIII spoiler would fit my SSII, oh well
maybe duckbill or rear lip?
