A working 4WS system is fine for the track. It is up to you if you like it. Personally I like 4WS on track but there will be people who don't.

Im not too fussed about not having 4ws but when i was gonna buy my next one, it was going to be 4ws, but its so hardvto find a jdm with 4ws with facelift dash and fogs in the uk. Spoke to budget holdings in japan they also said they are very rare in japan also. So all you people with that particular car, hold on to what you've got cos you will never know what you had till its gone lol

What I actually said was... "If all you are after is a direct fit replacement for your failed/failing manifold and downpipe then a DC Sport header is a good option as the fit and quality is known. This will bolt up to your stock UK cat which you want to keep without any modifications. Minor gains will be achieved but that is all for this type of manifold." ;)

Cheers Rich.

Seeing as I don't want to be messing about re-mapping ECU's and things, keeping things a stock size would probably be best for me. Sounds like the DC sports manifold and downpipe is the same diameter as stock and the Skunk 2 is 2.36 inch compared to 2.25 inch standard. So hopefully it will be ok? :idea:
