Project Nippon

...[I] want peoples suggestions and thoughts on putting together a complete Japanese build...I want good quality components but I am on a budget!

...

I'd love to get your combined knowledge on this as it will be my first build.

Rob, if your budget is sub £1k, don't bother with an all jap build. It will not happen. Sorry.

In theory you could do it by converting a random jap road frame. You could also save some money here and there going second hand, using sugino messenger cranks, maybe...
