I have noticed one weird thing... According to EPC there are two types of GT-four hood. 53301-20550 and 53301-20500. I have tried to ask for price from local Toyota and have found interesting thing.:

53301-20550 -> JDM ST205 hood only. Available for all JDM ST205 models (94-99). Price €930.
53301-20500 -> JDM WRC model hood, available only for 9 months of 94 in Japan. And the same hood is used for all European ST205 models! Price €1030...

Anyone here knows what is difference between them? I have only one idea... it's absence of air to cowl guide hood spoiler for JDM hood. What do you think? Thanks for opinions...

Really now? My hood came directly from the dealer (using the JDM part number) and it had the spoiler holes already punched, so the spoiler holes could not be the difference.
