Well I just received orders to change commands. I will be spending the last year of my marine corps life in Okinawa, Japan. I leave between June 1 and July 1. I'm pretty excited about it, I can't wait to get out of crapy ass Yuma. I also decided that as long as i can find work, i will be moving back to the twin cities. I might also reenlist in the Marines, but ONLY if they give me orders to MN, otherwise I'm getting the heck out. Anyway, just thought I'd share, later all!!!

Actually if i remember right, he can pick up a car there and buy it with his own money, military SHOULD transfer it here to USA since it is his car and they are making him move! ... Check into it! you might be able to pick up a skyline r34 there and bring it back here for free  how nice would that be!?

Not to stray off subject here, but aren't Trust products manufactured in Japan? I know that AlpineTsi from Tuners has a bunch of Trust products on his sweet white 1G and I think he brought them over from Japan.

i am almost certain the military will not transport a car back for me. They will transport other personal belongings, but not a damn car. I wish, or id be sportin a r32 or r33 whe ni got back. Plus i'd have to do whatever is required when you import a car to it, like new windows and all the other safety BS. Also, what is TRUST? i have not a clue about that, but id like to know. they just performance stuff or what? I'll go to Top Secret and have them build me somthin!! But when I'm over there, if there's anything i can get for cheap and you guys want it, then ill let you know and maybe i can send people some mad tyte JDM shizzit. Well I'm off to go do some drunken bowling and hit on every ugly girl in the bowlin alley. later all!

My understanding is that they will ship the vehicle to where ever you are stationed, but I don't know about the safety and emissions upgrade.

They should bring your car back, I know the Army does. I am pretty sure that goes for all the services if it is 1 year or longer.

TRUST is Greddy eh? well i've never really been a big fan of greddy products, except maybe the turbo timer. plus i am trying to fab up most of the stuff i can right now by myself. I'm making my own FMIC kit right now. Just need to find me a core for cheap. I'm considering fabbing my own exhaust, but i can get one for dirt cheap from RnR so ill pollt get one from him. anyway, im drunk as shit, i really need to go. bye bye

Why? I don't get it. Trust/Greddy makes good stuff for certain cars, just not DSMs.

Let us know when you are in japan, maybe we'll start a forum just for you for all the requests we will have. I have a few 'needs' myself off some gto's.
Have fun, my cousin was in the marines and stationed at that base. I guess it rocks, locals are cool, and he got to drive many 3rd gen rx7's and a supra rz. Got to ride in a skyline, and a bunch of other cool shit.
