Localisation Differences

 * The Tokyopop version of this volume mislables Nobuhiko Akiyama's Toyota Altezza as an EK-9
 * This is likely because the previous volume features Tomoyuki Tachi's Honda Civic in the same spot
 * This issue is never fixed or addressed until the car pages were removed all together from Volume 32 onward.
