A correspondence with SS works Japan.

[shiroitenshi]

Hmm.. my lacking knowledge of japanese writing is prevalent in the below email message.

Just posting to share... hhahaha.. don't bother that you can't read the japanese letters, unless you have UTF-8 encoding..

残念,私の日本人は悪い。
Sorry,my japanese is bad.

私が買ったこの部分。
This part I buy.

どんな修正これ合 (B20B + ブロックラダーフレーム) 必要性?
What kinds of modifications are necessary to use in a b20B setup?

あなたは英語が話せますか?
Can you speak English?

Sorry, I just used translation program for the japanese language above.

You can reply in japanese, and I’ll translate it slowly..
I know I need to modify the block girdle to fit, I just want confirmation from you about how to do it.

Thank you from the distant country for mail.

I cannot speak English.
There might be a part that you do not understand
　because I am translating Japanese into English
　with the translation software.

I do not understand the part ”block radder frame” about which you worry.
This part is the one developed only for the race,
　and it is not possible to use it as long as there are
　neither knowledge nor a technology of corresponding.
When the role of this part is understood,
　and the user cannot judge whether the processing is
　necessary for the engine and this part, it is not possible to use it.


遠い国からメールをありがとうございます。
私は英語を話せません。
私は翻訳ソフトで日本語を英語に訳しているので、あなたに
理解できない部分があるかもしれません。

私にはあなたが心配している部分がわかりません。
この部品はレース専用に開発されたものであり、相応の知識と
技術がない限り使用できません。
この部品の役割を理解し、使用者がエンジンやこの部品に加工が
必要かどうかを判断できない場合には使用できません。

ＳＳＷＯＲＫＳ

With that long of an answer.. I can summarise what he said in a sentence.

"If you're stupid, then it's not possible to use the part..."

Hahaha.... :P

Well.. so much for trying to get help.

Maybe I'm just not being specific.. but as I said.. written japanese language just isn't my strong point. Fact is, I can't recognise kanji at all.

Anyone here who knows Kanji?

 

[hattech-v]

wth that kanji is?

 

[- J f D -]

hehehe... kanji is a japanese system of writing. Like how chinese have their system of writing.

I used to learn kanji back during school days, but it just got too confusing haha... in the end i stuck to watching anime to learn japanese.

 

[shiroitenshi]

Kanji is a character system adopted from the chinese.

Hiragana and Katakana are characters that are made by japanese themselves. They work something like BM's 'suku kata'. one character represents one 'suku kata'. Complex characters for complex people.. hehehe.

But this isn't a Japanese language thread... so back to topic.

But wah.. no help at all from them.. of course, can't really blame them because they put a BIG DISCLAMER on the website already, just that my friend didn't bother reading them before buying the part.

'Parts need modding and common sense to use' <- actually it's a little more obscure than that, but that's from what I understood from it... :P

 

[bornzreign]

err...what part did u fren actually buying from them?just curious..

 

[shiroitenshi]

It's written there what?.. block rudder frame.. what US people call a block brace/ block girdle.

Nobody ever said that japanese-english was easy to understand. :P

 

[akuma]

ahahahhahahaha...liddat oso can?need common sense to use?

 

[xxxx]

u contacted ss works? if only their parts r available here....no need special order...

 

[chris2000]

Japanese really got communication problem..

Lucky J's Racing employ a Jap who can speak some english. Very little but still alot better than what you receive. But sometimes i still need to read their email 2 times to understand. haha..

 

[user6]

[crower75]

wth that kanji is?

[b-eater]

what is this block radder frame actually??
can show me??

 

[nehemiah]

This part is the one developed only for the race,
　and it is not possible to use it as long as there are
　neither knowledge nor a technology of corresponding.

This part is meant for racing purposes, the user must have knowledge of the technology and compatible parts in order to use it .

That's the only part which im sure of :_:

 

[shiroitenshi]

For those that don't know, it replaces the block brace on the R, and reinforces crank caps.

Photoes.. look for it in ss works website.. too lazy to look it up again.

hattech.. the brace different from the type R one because it reinforces the block better since it also bolts on around the sump mounting area.

 

[hattech-v]

aiyaaa... the website i see all square letter laaa...

 

[- J f D -]

ahahha ... must install language packs (japanese) la boss... can install using the windows cd.

 

[bornzreign]
