Wow- not too many people are even going to know what that means unless they have been around a while...
Nishimura Mazda Sports Tuning was an "inside joke" that Vaughn came up with with the guys at Lazer Auto because he both pioneered and engineered so many things for the MX-3 and Mazdas in General for himself and for others.
Its been a while since I've seen the logo... but it included the Japanese flag if I remember correctly.

Yes, my thought was that as I have repainted my car metallic red, and I have no signs / emblems anywhere, I would like to have just that as a small "hint" on the back, I have just finished my KLZE swap, with curved neck, headers 3" stainless exhaust (Turbo later), Quaife diff, black alcantara seats.
As I recall you're right about the sun, I've tried an email to the very old email adress to V.Nishimura, but I don't think it is in use anymore.

I have no problem with using the logo if it is for non commercial purposes.
Your from Denmark. I was in Århus and Billund a few years ago. I stopped to talk to a guy in a car park in the Århus city center about his MX-3. I guess he knew of me via of the net and was surprised the I would be in Denmark.

Well the next time you decide to spend time here I'll be happy order a beer or two, it's a small country and most of us have family and friends in the major city's.
We have an local/national general mazda site call'd http://www.mazda-style.dk its only just over an year old but things are going good..
-- Picture removed by RAY -- The KLZE swap is increasing here in Europe, ther's a guy called Bastian in the Netherlands that have done about 15 for locals and germans, I bought mine from him ½ year ago, he import them by him self, a good guy - I think he's got an Eaton kompressor on his now.
Thanks for taking the time...

I don't get out in the field much anymore although I would like to go back to Europe again. One of the funniest things about this thread is that I have received several message from people asking for my parts catalogue because they read on MX-3.com that I have parts for the MX-3. Don't people comprehended what they read or do they only want to read what they want to see. I do have a pretty comprehensive catalogue of machining and production drawings for parts for all the BG 323 base cars especially the MX-3 for obvious reasons and a lot of other cars that there wasn't any aftermarket support. Back then was the MX-3 was still the the dealers showrooms may of the drawing were actually in the hands of several mass market aftermarket parts manufactures. What killed almost all these parts was actually the MX-3 community fighting with itself and certain speed shops that were trying to get an exclusive deal from the manufacture on these parts.
