Time

The Norwegians like Japanese cars. Theres a guy nearby who owns an Evo 8 and theres quite alot of 200sx's around. I can't wait to stop to fill her up for the first time.. lol so many ford sierra's parked at the gas station with wheels costing more than the car itself . My first trip(first drive actually) with the car will be to Amsterdam. Me and 3 other friends are leaving straight for Holland when I get the keys.

The headlight washers are standard on Australian cars with xenon headlights (ie the leather pack). It's an ADR (Australian Design Rule) requirement I think, for high-intensity lights. They are pretty stupid though - only work on the 5th or 6th squirt from the windscreen washers - not independently controllable. I don't think I've ever activated mine, in 50,000km of drivng...
All they do is spoil the look of the front of the car, IMHO.

eh... brreese, I would just get sway bars first, then maybe revi intake and a midpipe, by then you could probably use some new tires. After that get a piggyback and you should get some more power and at the same time pave the way for FI.
