Can someone with good Japanese car-language skills help me find a shop?
 
As the title says, I'm looking for a shop in my area, which is pretty rural. I'm not terrible at Japanese, but my google searches haven't be successful. I'm not sure if I've overlooked something or if it's mostly searching for the wrong terms. I've, of course, tried things like "rotary" and "rotary car", but I've mostly found things for Rotary International (the business/service organization) or just some blogs.

I'm not looking for a shop that can go as far as to complete engine rebuilds or even do major modifications, but something that seems good enough to help with any larger repairs or trouble shooting that should come up. I don't have anything specific in mind, but I'd like to know of a place before diving into owning an FD.

Also, if anyone has recommendations for sites for car shopping, that would also be appreciated. I know of the common used car sites, like goo-net, car sensor and, of course, yahoo auctions, but if there are any other good sites to search through, that would be nice to know.

why not look up all the shops like fujita engineering, scoot etc?

They're pretty much all centered around the main island, Honshu. I'm on Shikoku which is mostly rural areas. The largest city on the island only has 500,000 people. Basically, there's far from enough demand to have any of the popular shops based here.

I'm just hoping to find any performance shop that could handle rotaries as well. I'm not worried if they can do rebuilds and such, so they don't have to be that specialized, but just a place to handle some of the bigger stuff that I simply don't have the tools or space to do myself.

have you gone to any shops to ask them if they know of anybody?

Closest to you I know of is RE Miyoshi in Okayama. Then next is Legsport and Gfit in Hiroshima. I have dealt with all 3 shops and it varies on what you have or need done.
