Sorry if it is not proper for the forum, I just think it fit this forum most even they are not member's car yet ;D
Japanese guys seems to love them so much, just like we do ;)
Here are 2 Europa I found in Japan this week.

Very nice, Nuk! Too bad the engines weren't in either of the cars. I wonder if they kept their twin cams or if they installed something more modern... One of them seems to have a radio with a flip up screen. I've thought of installing something like that but always thought there was other stuff in the way so it wouldn't work.

Thanks for posting these pictures Nuk. The white one has an interesting hood/bonnet.

Nuk, do you speak or read and write Japanese?

Hi BDA,
My guess would be Twin cams back in. The interior is modernized, and a bit to the body, hopefully not with the engine :headbanger:

Hello Mark,
No, I can't speak or read and write Japanese, only love traveling there, so I went there many times. It is very very interesting country and people, cheers :beerchug:
P.S. There are some more photos from a Technical Shop Happy, the lotus specialist in Tokyo that I visited last year

Nuk,
Have you bought any products from Technical Shop Happy? Looking at their web site, they seem to have some neat offerings for the Europa.

Joji,
No, I didn't buy anything, as I don't need much things by that time and it is quite difficult to communicate as I cannot speak Japanese. I do want the rear Spoiler which is unique for Japanese Europa, as seen in "The Circuit Wolf" comic, but Saito San (Co-founder of Shop Happy) said, it is made to order only, so I do not really buy anything then. I noted that they also produce the close ratio gear set for Europa in their shop too. I would say they are most impressive garage I ever been to. :beerchug:
