Sparky Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Hi all. As above im looking for a Uk spec TT but although I know some of the diferences between the Jspec and the Uk spec I still look at them on pistonheads and autotrader and cant figure out which is which! Anyone got any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 See which one you can push the furthest. Yeah that ^^^^. Personally if I was going to get one the J-spec is lighter and therefore easier to push..... H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/191060.htm There's a UK spec for sale here, listing all the differences. Well no, 'cos loads of things in that list aren't differences as such. Many of those things are found on plenty of j-spec Supras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, your right. That "Rare UK Spec includes" list is a list of those things found as standard on a UK car. Some of these things are available as options as j-spec.

Jake Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I see. The advert also states facelift headlights but the ones in the photo aren't facelift. I guess the photos are old ones, are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Check for the heated leather seats button, and the headlight washer button, thats usually a good indication. Also the speedo, usually with JDM cars you have a bit of black tape covering up the KM/H sign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 The traction control button says "TRC OFF" (or is it TRAC OFF, I can't remember) on the UK cars, whereas on the J-Specs it says "SLIP CONT". J-Specs have a little red button by the auto-lever if it's an automatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 Thanks for the advise. Looking at the diference in price between Jspecs and Uk specs and the rareity i may just spend abit more on insurance and go Jspec. I'll mention the Dildo Option to the Girlfriend though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzi Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 This is kinda a hijack SOZ! but if your j-spec lights get old and you want to replace them can you use uk lights? This will confuse people more 'is that a uk or j-spec' from the outside lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will confuse people more 'is that a uk or j-spec' from the outside lol Yes. Many people 'upgrade' to glass headlights because they don't go yellow. They look identical other than that they're made of glass (and have a slight bulge) though so I don't know how anybody would tell by looking. I'd rather upgrade to facelift lights since it takes 10 years for them to go yellow anyway and they look a hundred times better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
