But yeah I would still probably install an aftermarket tach.

Ricer? Well this is going to be my first Jap car, and most of the mods I'll be doing to the vehicle will be for MPG, so I don't see how that term applies. :P

Maybe, I think its too much money for what it is. I like simplistic styling and that whole rear spoiler ruins everything to me. I might get it if the dealer can order one in a 5 speed, but if thats a no go, base model FTW. But if I do get one, off with the rear spoiler and to ebay it goes.

I installed an ACT Stage 1 clutch on my car and it's much better than stock, if not a bit stiffer. I certainly don't feel it's a waste of money, since it was at least $100 less than OEM, and it feels great once you get used to it. Of course, I don't know anything about that TRD clutch, but it should be stiffer than OEM as well.

If that is the case, that it would leave mounting holes behind I would just request it without the spoiler. I didn't think that it was mounted in the roof, looked like it is mounted underneath the lip of the hatch.

For hatches. For sedans, base models do come with tachometers (or at least they can as part of a package, such as the power package).
