Think something is wrong with your flash. Try getting your flash to work cause they have some neat demos on there about Evolution VIII stuff. I can't read Japanese but I just think those demos done with flash is pretty neat.
its a 137kb flash presentation at the openinging ... shows a few pics of car.
you can go into other areas and it has a few pics and other things. all the text is jap but the pics are readable :P

Based on my limited Japanese reading skill, one of the improvements is the improved security system....mind you EVO is one of the hottest car to attract auto-thieves...
The 6-spd Demo is also nice

Put the web page link in on that page up above and tell it Japanese to English and it will translate a lot of it. i did not get time to read it so don't know about its accuracy.

Even the new C&D's review said that US gets revised widen
version of the Recaro for those that possibly enlarged by KFC

's are MUCH bigger. Several years ago I had to drive a CRX with a sparco that was about the same dimensions as the recarro (but maybe with less cushion) about 160 miles a day while my mule was in the shop. I lasted a week before I bought a stock honda seat.
The stock evo seat should be easy to swap out quickly with a deeper bucket - and even without that the stock seats should do fine when sliding into your parking lot or atm booth at .95g.
