Don't know if any of you ever get the Option 2 magazine there stateside, but there is a tuning shop profiled in one of the last couple issues called Yashio Factory. These guys have or can get just about anything you want for your S chassis car. They also are a dealer in HKS and NISMO. They even have their own line of products. They are track tested, and top knotch. There current team car is a bad a!! S-15. I might try to get some pics. But if you wanna check the website, unfortunatley in Japanese, here is the url. http://www.yashiofactory.co.jp.

By the way, I live about 2KM or 1.25M from there. Maybe the Mods and Admns would be intersted in a JDM sponsor. Let me know guys.

That would rock, but I doubt it could happen. Worth a try though!

Please do!! just pm him I think it would be awsome to have yashio as a sponser. Plus it be a lot easier to buy things possibly.

That is the same car that sits in the extremely little showroom in the shop uptown. So far guys, I haven't been able to get up there to talk to anyone. My Japanese translator, my wife, has not had the time to get up there with me. Hang in there though. I will get up there eventually.

What do we stand to gain by allowing Yashio Factory (if they even so choose) to advertise on NICO when 99.9% of us have no ability to communicate with them.

Honorable intentions, yes, but I fail to see the point other than novelty.

You would be surprised how many Japanese people can speak English...even if it is broken. I can hardly speak Japanese, but I can go just about anywhere and get just about anything I want over here with little or no japanese. And why not...would be kinda cool.

Not that they probably don't sell tons of parts already, but I know that I as well as probably just about everyone else on the board would buy tons of parts from them if they were made easily available with them being a sponsor. Would be pretty cool.
