And, it does not get better. Its either people don't speak English or don't want to deal with a foreigner despite my wife being Japanese with the ability to speak and write fluently.

Japan. No of my connections speak English or know about how to find out anything.

Best Resources for Building a G200w 2.0L Engine From a 117?

Got a PA96 G200w engine for just under $450 delivered to my door. My Japanese is not too great, so searching for Japanese sources is slow going. Are the books/websites and other resources in English about working on and tuning this engine? I want to stay NA and get 150hp out of it...more if possible ...

Re: seam welding...nice, necessary, not worth it?

It turned out not to be....or at least not to be right now. But, I did take two pics of the car because almost every morning I take my dachshund out to pee about where I'm standing to take the picture. Maybe the guy will change his mind, but that will have to be another day.

Re: seam welding...nice, necessary, not worth it?

looks like there maybe a GTR or two in that lot....or fakes.


Due to the number of Belletts there at the time and still remain...and talking to him, I am inclined to believe that they are indeed real. Although not carved in stone, fakes/clones are frowned upon especially among old Japanese ...

Its called Maseru Repair Shop

and it has a rather nice parking lot

The parking lot company ...

seam welding...nice, necessary, not worth it?

Greetings,

I do not currently own a Bellett GT, but there is one deteriorating about 300meters from my house here in Kyoto. My wife has called the parking lot company and has found out the car has not been fully abandoned, but is instead still owned. There is no guarantee that I will be able to get ...
