Hello, just wondering what people know about this guy? I have searched the internet but can't find anything that could explain why his name is on my car.
There are a few stickers dotted about saying concept by Ukyo Katayama. When the car was imported over the rear screen was basically an advert for him.
Any ideas or info?
Cheers

Just tat stickers off of ebay perhaps. Like the Colin M ones Subaru drivers purchase.

The previous owner must have been a big fan of him then!

I think some aftermarket parts were produced and branded as Katayama. I had a Katayama downpipe fitted to my RX7 when I bought it, was told by a tuner that it was a very high quality part.

Spent ages searching on Google and various parts sites and never found anything about who in Japan produced and sold Katayama parts, or what was in the range other than an RX7 downpipe.

ETA. Nice Supra!
