Hi guys,
I thought maybe we could make a thread where everyone can post rare JDM go fast bits for an FTO?
I know there aren't many, but certainly there are some hidden gems somewhere.
I'll start with the Pro Shop Iida extractors

Yes of course they are not worth the money, but this is a thread about what is (or at least was) available from Japan to tune these cars (not including bodykits and cosmetic items)

Yeah that's my picture actually.
Is it worth anything? As it seems pointless seeing as I have an e-manage anyway.
Do you know what exactly they were tuned for? I recall someone here saying there were 2 versions

I remember reading that thread about the Mines, in the end it's useless as the only people to mod the tune are Mines.
paperweight if not on the same car, same mods, same fuel.

Does this mean that something has been changed inside it to allow new maps to be added?

Again, memory, was something to do with the eeprom being locked and only mines could unlock.

Yeah they cost more than some cars are worth...
So, is this as far as the Japanese tuning community touched the performance of these cars?
