OK, I'll try to reply as best as I can to all your questions:

1) All TIIs in Greece (and Europe I think) are almost identical to those from Japan (minus the right-hand side steering wheel ). All have PS, AC, trip computer, sunroof, electric windows/mirrors/locks, front lip, rear wing, side skirts, 16 inch multi-spoke rims, LSD, adjustable beams, leather-like (or leather, cannt decide ) interior, and a turbo Thats what I can remember...

wow. sweet blue T2 man!

does anyone know if japan ever had sunroofs on their FC's? i've never seen a jspec FC with a sunroof. and i've never seen one with leather either...

Keep in mind that this is the TII of a friend. Mine's identical, but its black

He's got free exhaust, DP, cone filter and wider tires. That's all (I think...). I got the FCD and the cone filter, but still no exhaust

If you are sure that J-Spec does not include leather and/or sunroof, then our TIIs are not J-Spec ....they must be G-Spec (G for Greece)

Thats a euro model T2 all right but without the front lip(which was standard).Is that colour custom made?I think the only colours the car was available with as new were black,white,grey and red.

I think the "other" region would be best to work on since we have japan and US well pretty much. Are europe and the japanese ones really that different?
And maybe canada too.
Only difference I know of for Canadian models is that they don't have those funky seat belts in the 89-91 US models. All of our FC's have seat belts that are permanently mounted like the 86-88 versions.

ON the northern European cars, the left taillight has the back up light replaced by a red rear fog light. Front turn signal lights are also slightly different.

The Northern Europe ones also have ALL equipment as stock, their was not so many cars sold, it was like 25 total..... Mine is black too!
Oh, btw, the S-AFC is no problem to use, but europe models CAN NOT buy a US version chip such as Superchips, they are tuned for 91 RON i think, in Sweden we have 98 premium wich probably give 5-10 bhp.... The jap ecus such as Blitz Acces remapped are tuned for 100 RON, wich means i need to run racegas or octanebooster.
Difficult to deal with enginemanagement. Wich I lived i Australia!
