I know some of us had been talking about whether or not the Japanese gov't would most likely get rid of the "gentlemens' agreement", allowing Japanese manufacturers to produce cars rated at over 280 horse power.
Well, I purchased a Japanese car magazine at kotobukiya in Porter Square, Boston yesterday, and to my delight, I found that the new Nissan Skyline 35 GT-R is rated at 380 ps with about 370 lb/ft torque (that's doing the math in my head of kg/m...).
I am personally excited about the end of the agreement because it will allow Japan to really compete as far as supercars go.

Currently, PAS is operating under a 1997 agreement that preserves PAS ownership, on paper, for the village of Prentice.
Sources familiar with PAS history say for decades there has been a "gentlemens' agreement" that while the village of Prentice holds title, all 12 municipalities own and operate the ambulance service.
Even though there is widespread agreement that it is time to replace one of the old rigs, the village's decision rankled many ambulance board officials and residents of other municipalities.

SPEED limiters will be fitted to new bikes for 2001 as part of a voluntary agreement drawn up between the major Japanese and European bike makers.
Last week we revealed manufacturers were being forced to consider a speed or power limit to appease those politicians who are becoming increasingly concerned by the high maximum speeds of some bikes.
In the short term, the agreement could be good news for both firms.

(In the world of diplomacy, whenever two thugs get together and make an agreement, they call it a Gentlemen's Agreement.) And this agreement stated said that the United States would allow Japanese immigrants into the United States if in turn Japan would make sure that the only people who applied for immigration were educated people.
So that was the compromise, and then in 1924 the U.S. unilaterally abrogated the Gentlemen's Agreement and said we've got a new immigration law.
You're entitled to an immigration quota of fifty compared to 25,000 for Britain, and this greatly offended Japanese sentiment, and helped push things to war in 1941.

 Ultimatecarpage.com forums - Japan to join "horespower war"?
As I suppose most of you know, during the late 1980's, a voluntary power limit of 280hp was introduced in Japan, due to the fear from the government that more and more cars would get more powerful in a "competition war", therefore cause more wreaks and safety concerns.
All Japanese manufacturers joined this agreement voluntarily; although some cars actually toped over 280hp, or toped the limit over some years.

I asked Ray on Saturday if there was any chance of Gazza coming here next season and he said that it was possible: that Gazza wanted to come; but that it wasn't too likely.
Ray's the kind of guy that when something is secret, he'll just avoid the direct topic and allude to it (like he does about foreign players they're looking at); but he won't directly lie about it.
