Besides the “grow some brains” and “stop whining” Comment (I havent done any personal attacks here so pull your fucking head out of your ass and learn to have a proper conversation. I didn’t see myself whining anywhere.) You have given me exactly what I was asking for. Is there a place to get the general setup of these cars? Apparently Option does. I don’t read it, maybe I will have to start (not so hard to explain that, was it?). I didn’t think it was available in English, am I wrong? Perhaps after having access to this information by working in the industry, I have lost interest in the washed out versions that are made available to the public on these cars?

As for trade secretes, While my complaint here is way off topic now, what started it for me was the fact that “tuner shops” don’t seem to be tuners anymore for the most part. They simply sell parts and expect the manufactures of those parts help to tune the customers car. I know this from experience, and its really annoying. Why doesn’t the manufacture simply sell direct. They make more money, and they are doing all the work for the tuner anyway. Very big names (I wont mention who they are specifically) are guilty of this. Doesn’t make them any more of a tuner than Midas in my opinion.

I LIKE the pictures of tuner cars, but I want more information with them. I want to know details of the car, and why it was setup this way, and for what type of use will it see. From there some race results, and some general specs would be nice. (eg: Street Tien dampers but uses an aggressive DOT X brand race tire with a very aggressive track alignment setting) would be great.

As I said, I don’t expect the users to post it up, but a place to find the article would be nice, especially if its being found in the tech forum. Or the Tuners themselves posting it up on North American based websites.

As for Flying to Japan, Let me get right on that. Some of us don’t live in a world where that is reasonable. However, getting some information with my pretty pictures I would think is.

I admit that the depth of what I am looking for will probably never be made readily available, but even just a general setup would be cool. What hk20000 makes sense, and i am asking for too much. But I also think the general public is gien WAY too little information. Again, maybe am just not looking in the right place?
