JDM Goodies found! (i think)
OK, so googling here in the states for ist stuff makes no sense at all considering its only really looking in north american site generally speaking. So i found out what the web addy was for the japanese version of google and started to try to search for stuff with google thinking i was searching from japan (i guess).
Anyways I got a whole bunch of these japanese websites and used a combination of altavista and the 'translate this page' feature to try to find some cool crap for our car.
Along the way I came to some of my own conclusions which arent any surprise to some of you but, frustratingly i kept finding stuff for the xA (gen1 ist i guess), and so to get around that, i think i searched for the correct body style of NCP110? I think the xA is like body style NCP60 or something? And of course I searched by our engine code 2zrfe. (right? i hope. gulp)
Sooooo anyhooo, i saw some stuff i thought i'd share with you guys thati've never seen available on ebay or anywhere.
ok first up..... Large Diameter Throttle Body woot!Actually this one is off of a tuner shop called woow city. The translated desciptions that the translator come up with are hilarious.

Here's my question with this i guess... the only IST listed is an NCP11? (whatever that is) AND the only 2zrfe models listed are all NOT ist models. weird huh? look.

Original Japanese link is here:
http://www.woowcity.com/2006/tune/tune.html
again to translate, right click anywhere on the page and select 'translate this page'
("don't skip the DUB translation its priceless")
OK my other find was these rear bumper reflector LED light Replacements. SWEET.

Webpage for these is here:
http://www.auto-acp2.com/pm_lenz/tai...ncp110_rbl.htm
I think these would fit? BUT they might be for our xA cousins only. I dunno.
Enjoy all!

rofl... good finds... the market kinda sucks... but its slowly but surely getting better...
more companies are releasing parts for the car... i myself have a set of coilovers ont he way over from japan... along with front end conversion.... : ( to bad shiping is gonna by about 1 1/2 months.... next thing will be to swoop up a set of garson rear lights... that replace the reflectors on the bottom of the bumpers... as far as performance... we got nothing right now from jp : ( kinda sad this would seem to be a killer platform

found it on the 5zigen website, but ONLY on the japanese version. According to the harness pdf on there they got one for the 2zrfe.

well im not exactly sure what that is... but a voltage stabilizer just regulates the cars electrical system so there is spikes and drops..... it can be argued that it does wonders and it does nothing... usually in high hp applications they run them to protect expensive stand alone units to prevent voltage spikes... i noticed a few more mpg on my xb... and also audio quality was alot better.... and its a nice showpiece... but it looks like this one plugs into each individual spark plug.... by the look of the harnesses
