Why the electric water pump? Unless you're planning some constant high-rpm stuff there's really no advantage, and it'll be another load on your electrical system.
Being the JDM version it has even less stuff in it than normal 'verts and the car dosent really feel as heavy as people would lead you to think.
I really want to get it onto a weightbridge one day.
Turbo 'verts rock.

Im looking into the EWP as they a far superior way of controling your cooling system. they are proven to provide resonable power gains for their cost (below 7500 RPM too) they have a very low current draw. Have a look for some good info on them on ausrotary.com, in some posts by "kypreo"
I parked next to a aussie spec 'vert a little while back while it was at a local workshop, i was suprised that it had stuff mine didn't actually (othert than the headrest speakers)
my vert dosent have the headrest speaker system and it only had a basic audio pack (there were no amps and no traces of them being removed.)
ive got no headlight washers (aussie verts had them)
there is more stuff that no doubt i will think of as soon as i submit this post
