This may have been discussed previously and has little relevance but why did Mitsi leave out JC in the models for you guys in Oz?
Also dont think there was a GSR-IV in the jap range? why?

JC may seem a bit blasphemous - think about it.

For the same reason Camira model designation jumped from JB to JD

The JD intercoolers are mounted vertically like normal. Have never seen a horizontal one in a car, only in drawings in mitsubishi manuals.

My car was dead stock original and the cooler was mounted vertical.

JD also apprantly has the bigger diff and a smaller TC-05 turbo. The washer bottles in the front are also slightly different to suit the intercooler pipes.
