Differences between modelyears
Like Widar already said in another topic, there are quite a few differences between the modelyears.

Wouldn't it be interesting to see if we could make a complete list of all the differences? If I take a look at my cars I see differences in front- and rearbumper, sideskirts, the black strips on the headlights, grille, interior clothing, sidemarkers etc. etc.

Does anyone know all the differences?

Why motorsports? Because other sports require only one ball!

The grill are different, as well as some mechanical parts, LSD and on.

Dunno exactly though. The Toyota parts CD should have it all listed?

Best Regards,

Good luck figuring out differences using the EPC cd's...
These are some differences I know of:
-Bumpers & bumperlips
-Spoiler on bootlid (zenki=rubber, kouki=plastic)
-Sideskirts (zenki are WAAAAYYYY cooler...think I'll try making FRP copy's of senna's sideskirts)
-Fender trimming on late models (rust provoking plastic junk)
-Grilles: louvre and pop-up grille are zenki, closed plastic is kouki
-Interiors..asides from color scheme and fabric, the kouki door panels have fabric on them, zenki are all plastic.
-Wiring loom: Just look at the check engine connectors...theyre different.
-Master brake cilinder: according to dreamsofdrifting.com (migs website) the kouki MBC is of a slightly better design.
-Headlights and clearance lights: Different mounts and metal/plastic trimmings on kouki models..also on european models zenki has black side indicators.
-Rear axles and LSD

FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC!
