JDM models didn't have the pre-cat....that was a USDM thing I think.

mine had a "heat" light come on, no idea what it does, as the manual I have is all Japanese like....

but I did see the light come one the odd time.... its to the left of the steering assembly, and maybe the second light inwards... only seen it a handful of times...
