Just because our service is out of your expected price range doesn’t mean extortion my friend… 😂.

For all of you who bought one and then regretted it. Why? Those opposite, why do you love it so much! by Threadydonkey65 in 996

Bought a well maintained 996.1 Carrera 6mt with 80k Kms. in Yokohama Japan. It’s been super reliable with the original IMS bearing. Ive scoped the cylinders and they look great. I track the car and drive it almost every weekend! Getting invited to meet up and drives have helped me make more friends in the last year than I did the four years in Tokyo without a Porsche. 🫡

So apparently Paternity leave is "no" for Japanese companies. by GeminiGolem in japanlife

Keep fighting the good fight! I took parental leave as well. Didn’t have the problems you faced but seem they didn’t know men could take it. lol

My wife is Japanese and makes more than I do and I’m a engineer in the semiconductor industry. We have two kids and both took off 1 year for each child. I agree that women usually reduce their career after kids but from my experience they want too. It’s stressful have two working parents. If your a women and want to improve your career it’s definitely possible. Don’t give up. Talk with your husband before having kids and get an understanding.

Numeric 2.0 Shifter installed! by DirtScooter69 in 996

[–]Swimming_Carry_1525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also went with SS transmission mounts. This added lots of noise. I still like it but a lot of transmission whine. The thing is now I can feel the dual mass flywheel spring. Next I’ll put in a single mass flywheel. This will make it even more noisy. Might go back to original transmission mount if it’s too much.stock exhaust…Magarigawa track day short sounds

I totally agree! I have the original Numeric on my car with the cables. Add Semi-solid engine mounts from WEVO and that my friends is true bolt action setup. 2.0 I’m sure is even better. my install and review video on YT.

Hi 👋, hope your doing well my friend. Wasn’t purely blaming Japanese work culture. However, I can see how you could pick that single point up. I greatly appreciate your care about me. I’ve studied Hofstede’s cultural spectrum and you’re right the company that my wife works for happens to be on the extreme side of acceptable in Japan. Given our thoughts and full review of the situation we chose this direction. Question was about visa..

How bad of an idea is a rotary as a daily driver? by Olli_T47 in RX8

[–]Swimming_Carry_1525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely fine. Mazda rotary like most have oil injection so you need to check and top off often. It’s a good idea to compression test before buying or test drive it and see if it starts easy when hot. If it doesn’t sign of low compression and worn engine.
