I used to be well into Jap cars and some of the names were similar.

Buddy Club, Rays etc etc.

Its just a cultural thing don't be put off by a name.

BTW I still live Jap cars.......... :drool:

This is true. The Japs give their cars some offputting names too. Are they taking the piss out of Westerners?

No completely the opposite.

They love Westerners so try to imitate but sometimes get it wrong.

One of my ambitions is to travel around the far East and spend some time in Japan.

Very intriguing.

From experience the japs are way ahead with big turbos and intercoolers on much higher bhp cars that vws so I wild think there worth a try even if the fitting requires a bit of modding
