Everyone!! - WE ARE STILL HERE...

My name is Ken Harrison Owner of Enjuku Racing, Inc and ER Motorsports, LLC. For the past 9 years I have been in business selling parts and providing support for the Nissan Community. We are one of the oldest and longest standing 240sx shops in the country.

I have been hearing a lot of rumors on the internet that Enjuku Racing was going out of business or was out of business and wanted to Personally clear them all up.

Enjuku Racing, Inc (The parts company) is still going strong and moving forward to continue to provide great prices and the best possible customer service in the industry.

We actually just launched a new/updated website - http://www.enjukuracing.com

I believe these rumors have stemmed from the fact that ER Motorpsports, LLC. (The Professional Race Team, FD and Nopi) is not going racing this year.

I ran ER Motorsports, LLC for the last 3 years campaigning our Pro Drift Team all across the country and employing almost 20 people between ER and Enjuku. While drifting is fun and was a good marketing tool, it didn’t warrant the costs. Unfortunately this season the program cost more than what the sponsors were able to bring. And after 3 years, a Nopi Championship, an Unser driving for me, and a TON OF MONEY ... I decided to cut the race program and stop racing.

I believe over the last 3 years a lot of you have come to think of us as a race team, not a performance parts supplier, and when the word got around that we were not racing, the assumptions started flying about Enjuku Racing.

There is no mystery here.. Racing is Fun and Expensive. This is the reason we are no longer racing.

Enjuku Racing (The parts company) is still here. I want to personally thank all of those who have supported us over the years, both on the parts side and racing..... We couldn’t have done it with out you.

I do believe that over the past few years our service has slipped some, due to the extreme focus on Racing and Shop work. Because of this I have decided to also stop Shop work for the time being. Our staff has obviously been cut dramatically because we are not traveling the country and working on cars. I want to get our parts customer service back on track.

It is now time to get back to what we do... SELL PARTS!!!!

If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask. I will do my best to answer them all.

As for now... check out the new site and let me know if you have any suggestions. Be sure to sign up for our news letter. (register as a user on our new site) We send out some great specials pretty often - http://enjukuracing.com/april08.html

Thanks for the clarification, Ken. I hadn't personally seen any rumours floating about yet, but it's best to squash them now than before hearsay starts to become "fact"

Its sad to see ER drop out of the running for FD and Nopi - your team has been amazing to watch in competition.

What I'm curious to know is what's going to happen to the BRS 350z conv. you guys were gonna run. For sale?

The 350z we built it in Long beach and will be driven by Bill Sherman. The car is in the hands of a new team/crew. I wish them the best. Racing isn't easy or cheap!!

I am looking to sell the S13.5 Car from last season though. I am open to offers. :o)

thanks

Ken

Only bad news and rumors seems to get around quickly. I check the site often and I notice the upgrade, great site and lots of parts available. I've made a purchase in the past and hope to purchase somethings soon again, but it sucks since i'm from South America and I have to do wire transfers. oh well...it's the world we live in. Someone there by the name of Mike was helpfull, hope he's still there.

Good to see that you are making the right decisions for the sake of your customers. And that's what running a business is all about. I really enjoy checking your cars and the pit work during the last NOPI's....

Godspeed, Bro.....

I might be needing an engine swap from you one day.....

Not the biggest deal on earth but this def sucks. I always thought enjuku put out some of the best S13's for racing and drifting. Although I never saw one enjuku car upclose cause I live up east they always looked sick from the pictures.

I still look at pics of the twin S13 hatches, and the s13.4 coupe. All three of those cars were pure sex.

Glad to know Enjuku is still supporting the 240 community though!

My friend Romo introduced me to Enjuku when I first moved to Orlando. Amazing company to deal with when buying parts, and I'm incredibly happy they're still gonna be around
