The S15 is now officially released and has the 6speed! Both SpecS and SpecR
are turbo and rated at 147kW.
>From what I ahve heard, the S15 SR20DET is internally identical to the
Jap-spec SR20DET, just detuned
for the fuel and then a bit more to keep the rechipping industry alive! But
seriously, it should have awesome potential.
