I think how good the Japanese have it is highly overrated. They have horsepower restrictions, a tax on displacement and their vehicle inspection system sucks (registering a mk3 in Japan would cost more than what we pay to buy one). I'm glad I live in the land of cheap cars.

You dont have a Turbo A. Turbo A's werent availible in the U.S., had Recaro seats, MOMO steering wheel (IIRC), more power, a duct on the bumper, etc.etc.etc. I've also seen some with black sawblades...and come to think of it I havent seen a Turbo A that wasnt black.

No kidding...so that TRD trim is real? Sweet! Didnt know they made that! VERY cool. Where did you get it, and for how much?

I remember seeing the gauge faces somewhere, but as far as go fast stuff, its nowhere to be found.
I bought the car with them but I belive one other person on this board has the TRD side trim pieces(can't rember who his is also a black 89+).

The TRD glow gauges are pretty damn sweet stuff can change the colour from green to blue and there sweet. Has the offical TRD badge on them on the Tach right by the cruises control light.

I don't have a real closes up pic of the trd decal but if u look close in the pic near the front u will c the little TRD elblem:

Also here some pics of the glow guages, Only onen problem with them they convert everything into american(MPH on the outside and boost is measured in psi), wich is ok becuases I can relate better to psi.
Also look closes in the tachometer and at the bottom u can also c the TRD badge

I guess the person I bought the car off had a bit of an obssesion with trd

TRD LSD is made by KAAZ. It can be had for cheaper. There are not really any visual things for the MKIII so it's much better to buy another cheaper+better aftermarket part than a TRD part. No one is going to see it anyhow.
