not really different than in the US, all three of the GM ones had metric dshes in them, other than that they were all left hand drive, same layout everything, except one small detail, they had a RPO code of EXP, and RPO code is a GM designation for a certain part of the car for when it was built, one you may have heard is WS6 which is the RPO code for performance suspension. EXP stood for Japanese domestic market sales only. The kicker to that was I could not bring it back to the US, without going through the same importing requirements that the Skyline had to go through...

Are those the right pipes?



Two of those couplings look like they must have been a bitch to put on, the pipes don't line up very well.
Yeah, hence the Nasa puzzle we went through, at the end of all of this it was decided to go the route we did. but good luck getting that radiator to move...it is definately in there
