The Truth About Importing Cars From Japan!
To reach Brian and his team at B-Pro: b-pro.ca
We have an in-depth conversation with Brian from B-Pro Auto, Canada's biggest importer of JDM cars (based in Calgary, Alberta), about all of the challenges involved in importing cars from Japan. But of course with those challenges come big payoffs including access to rare and special cars that were never sold in North America as well as access to more common cars but at a price point that is better than the domestically available equivalent.

    No idea why people are still so obsessed with all the JDM cars. I loved them as a kid (I'm 39) but at a certain point you realize that their prices can never match the actual quality of the car. I absolutely adore the NSX, but to spend Porsche GT3 money on a car that's no better in any way (other than looks) than a 2006 Cayman S is insane

    Hi, after setting everything and making sure the colored links were in the correct locations(two dots on cam gears and mark down at crank gear), I turned the engine a couple of rotations and back to lining the timing marks up but the colored links seem to be out of position. The tensioner is in place and everything but the colored links dont line up in the locations I set them up in any longer when I am at top dead center cyl 1. What gives?

    So basically the cars are equal but you have to give us position. This is the best version of democrat racing I have ever seen. If you approach someone working a distance they have to let you pass????!!! WTF is that? Take it or a real race and pass and earn it. Sadly this is what the liberals / democrats are doing to even auto racing now. If someone is behind you why do you have to let them pass? Is this not freaking racing and where is the challenge? Sad.
