i am a member in japan

[aussie_in_nara]

I was urged by another member to introduce myself in the Japan section...

I am Aussie living in Japan. I have been here for five years ans self-employed in Nara. Does anyone know Kashihara City? Well this is near where I live....actually, I live more in a more rural area....house, garden, and vegetable patch...

I am not a skyline owner at the moment....until April I had a GTiR Pulsar as my ride. When its shaken finished this year, I exported to Australia under the personal import rule....

I have a few good makes in the used automotive industry, and quite often get decent parts they don't want....so, if you ever need anything drop me a line....

If anyone is in this part of Japan, drop me a line and I'd be happy to show you around a bit...

I was urged by another member to introduce myself in the Japan section...

That would be me...welcome!

As you would have guessed I'm from Osaka or Itami to be precise if you know the Osaka Airport that is where I'm. Japan forum moderator Rezz is from Kobe, Ashiya and Streeter here is also from Osaka, there are also a few other Aussies around but they are not from this forum.

I'm also urging DaiOni to make the move to Kansai

[DaiOni]

hey akeenan, have you been to the upgarage near chiba chuo station? I'm thinking of popping into there on the weekend (before crystal). If so, any good?

I'm not in japan but when I go there I hope to see some street drifting

How do you become self-employed in japan ? I'd like to know - this sounds better than my life atm

[aussie_in_nara]

mmmmmmm.....

if you have a degree......any type of degree.... you can get a job teaching English....this usually gives you a three year visa....in this time, you get to know Japan, how things work, and then you can try to do your own thing. I am still doing the English teaching thing......work for myself and earn more than enough money working just 25 hours a week....if you don't have a degree and are under 30 (i think) you can come over on working holiday visa. This allows you to stay for a maximum of one year and work 20 hhours a week. 20 hours should pay around 200000yen. My younger bro, 26 yo, will be over in September for a year. For any young single guy, it is probably one of the best places to be.......easy job, great looking woman, lots of boyz toyz.....

another way.......marry a Japanese chick!

I live in a rural part in Japan....i can sometimes hear the lads drifting in the mountains on a windy night. I used to have a GTiR pulsar.....my Japanese mates over here told me to be careful as my car could well end up stolen by these guys if I am not careful.....never thought twice about leaving my car unlocked over here......
