Valve cover color related to year/model?

Post by **Dattebayo** » Fri Oct 22, 2004 12:07 pm

Haha... a really newbish question, huh?

I see at least three colors for the ca's valve color and they LOOK stock.Blue, grey, and yellow. I'm just wondering if these are from different cars and/or models/years, or if someone just had a paint job on the stock cover and i am just confused!

all come red stock. USDM, JDM, turbo, non-turbo. seems like dark blue is really common color to change to though. I did mine dark blue afew years back with my first CA, and now it seems like half the CA's i see have dark blue covers. lol. it does look pretty sweet

and you do get the idiots at car meets saying stuff like "damn check out that blue top CA" or "wow, i love how the CA comes in a blue top version. i wish my SR had a blue top". Its really quite amazing how stupid some people are...

he got a t3/t4 turbo and supporting mods. hence, his CA grew a pair (of balls)...
