Location and a picture of your car

Hey well i know there was a thread similar to this a few months back, but thought what the hell. I was thinking everyone from the far east section could post their location and a picture or two of their ride.

Im in Okayama, south of Osaka.

Isn't Okayama is to the northwest of Osaka with Wakayama to the south and Nara to south/southeast? Just asking because I have been to Osaka, Hiroshima, Nara, Okayama, Fukuyama and Kyoto quite a few times.

nah mate, other way around. South of Osaka is Hyugo prefecture (Kobe), then Okayama. Okayama is between Osaka and Hiroshima, slightly closer to the latter.

Can i ask why you dont have an Rx?

No you can not ask me why I do not own a rotor-motor powered vehicle.....hahahaha

Nara and Wakayama are directly south of Osaka. Kobe is west of Osaka with Okayama to the southwest. I said northwest last time because I mistakenly thought Okayama was slightly northwest of the "2". Osaka, Kobe and Okayama are almost on a horizontal line when looking at a map . Hyogo ken is north west of Osaka, North/north east of Okayama, east of Totori ken. yes, I have been to these areas on more than one occasion

Nice cars guys!

My front bumper was made by Run racing, the rest of the body is stock aside from the rear rolled out fenders and wing.
I bought the car in a horribly faded, flaked away red. Then got it painted in this matte grey as they call it here. I think it was a flat black with some flatte white or something mixed in. Anyhow it was not done so well since last track event when i took off my number that had been taped on I pulled some of the paint off with it. Not sure what the next paint scheme will be...

That frontend debuted in Japan in the spring of '93 while the US didn't get the car until fall of '93. I should be driving it again soon because I am moving back to Okinawa.
