New from Okinawa

I"m Richard, living in Okinawa, Japan.

I'm coming near my to my time in Okinawa to come to an end, and picked up a 1990 RX-7. It will be returning to America with me, once I leave.

Looking forward to getting back into tinkering and tuning cars again. Previous car before coming overseas was a 2007 Z06, with aftermarket supercharger. 630hp will be missed, but I now have a fun car again.

Hi Richard and welcome to the club! Congrats on your RX7, it's a great choice and I'm sure you won't regret it. There is a ton of information about our platform with supporting vendors who can get you where you want to go. Enjoy your time here!

I was there for 2 years. The car scene is a little lack luster but, if you make some car buddies and go driving out in the mountains up north you'll have a great time.
