It's got me stumped......

It would appear that in japan the word for C210/C211 has the same meaning as the word "Japan" or something...because if i type "my japan" into google i get heaps of C210/C211 sites

They seem to refer to their cars as "My Japan"

Am I right, or is there some other explanation?

Got me stumped man, I tried doing the same thing as you, but I just get the usual "Japan weblog" and tourist type websites...

That said, I don't think anyone refers to their car as "my Japan", must be some kind of re-occuring phrase in the search results?

check this out:

Case Number 1

Case number 2 (note the text on the shirts)

Case number 3

Case number 4 (follow the links and you will find much more of the same)

This is how i got the impression that it might be the same word or something

it only happens with c210/c211's seems that c211 = japan lol

Yeah, just reading through those sites you posted, and the C210 was dubbed "Japan" because it was the first massed produced sports sedan/coupe to be sold simultaneously throughout Japan back in '77. Much the same as the "Ken Meri" KPGC110, I think the advertising at the time for the C210 "Japan" had alot to do with emotional themes, trying to stike up some 'o that old flower power free love '60s bizzo.

... hence "my Japan"... it's kinda emotional type reference.

Believe it or not Jason, I still keep an eye out on Yahoo Auctions Japan for your hotplate rear tail lights... nothing yet, and I really don't want you to get your hopes up, those C210/11 hotplates are rare, even for here!

Thanks buddy, your a legend! I look occasionally but i have to use babel fish for every little phrase on the page, because for some reason there is an error when you try to translate the whole page from jap to eng...

    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
