    A lot of the kei trucks and cars have a Suzuki F6A or K6A engine that was also used in some artic cat snowmobile. That kind of commonality makes it easy enough to find parts. Worst case scenario it is a 2 weeks wait time to get the part delivered from Japan. You know what took me more than 2 weeks to get some parts? A 2015 VW golf.

      That covers your Suzuki Alto Works’ engine but how much trouble was it to figure out where to get brakes for it?

      😬

        Easy enough that I could get the car to pass the provincial inspection roughly a month after I got it. How long did it took you to get that Audi S2 road legal?

          Call the dealer, order part VS spend hours figuring out what to order from where and hope that it’s actually legit…

          Never had an S2 but it wasn’t for a lack of parts that I didn’t get my S4 road legal
