    The brake valve limiter is not attached to the brakes it is between them. It is located just infront of the spare wheel bit. That is what they changed on mine. only one part.

    How much is my Cup worth

    Rich-D, Have you ever been inside one. I feel you have been mislead. I test drove one of these before the cup, But interior was sh*t, you tap the doors front or back and it is soooo plasticy. Would agree if you mean engine is better (japanese always good for modding)
