I found it on a website (was just browsing, getting an idea of price) but a contact in Japan bought it for me. So no website as such

Normally I dont find the car, the contact in Japan looks through all the auctions that day and emails me details of suitable cars, I then as him to bid on the ones I like.
This time I stumbled across it and the estimate seemed low and the condition good so I emailed its details to my contact and he found it at a auction in Tokyo rather than his normal places in Osaka.

It was just lucky that we happened to get the first car we bid on, my last one (1999 Integra Type R) took about 3 weeks and we bid on probably 12 cars in that time before I got one within my price range in good condition.
