    Thanks Jeff. I appreciate it. Looks like there may be some difference in the European cars vs the UK cars then. That looks identical to a US spec car, and doesn't show things like the oil level switch and the immobilizer. The only other possibility is that the pinout chart is wrong or out of date, and the actual correct details are in the MFI schematic section. I've seen this happen on the US books.

    It is possible, that although my workshop manual was purchased in the UK, that it is indeed a US one.
    The only way to find out for sure is to cross referance the PUB No. PWUE9119-H.

    André,
    Are You implying that Americans cant spell correctly in English or dont know the correct names for their vehicle body parts
    As this is only a Chassis supplement it does not mention any of those words.

    There is quite a bit of technical knowledge and information, on the JDM and UK spec cars, available at gtooc.org where membership is free.

    Before Jeff posted I was going to suggest posting the op's question on the OC site as there would be a good chance that someone had that information in the UK. You might even get someone like Ben Hartley help out.

    We can help out with silly little differences that you just wouldn't even think about. For example, the cross member behind the engine and gearbox is a different profile between RHD and LHD cars because the steering rack is on the opposite side inside the cross member.

    This may seem insignificant but when fitting big turbos and 3" o2 housings, it can be a factor that necessitates modification of the cross member on a RHD car
