No the UK and Import clocks are the same from what I can remember...

The only difference being in the UK clocks there is a battery guage which is a Turbo boost guage on the imports...

Mines got the 120kph clocks, been delimited and converted to mph. Never had a problem with them, have to drive past 3 speed cameras on the way to work so they can't be that far off!

Nice motor... enjoy!

13psi seems a touch brave for a revision 2 though mate... is it still running the standard IC?

I would get yourself a charge cooler or bigger intercooler rigged up if your planning on having some fun

wouldnt trust it myself...

colder weather maybe but not the weather we having at the moment!!


what it really needs is the Revision3 ECU, CT20 turbo, and a chargecooler from a GT4 and it would see over 300bhp
