Anyone heard of Tsunoda

As above, what can people tell me about the make?
Japanese mass-manufacturer of low-end road bikes. If they made anything worth riding, I've never seen it. The one I had fifteen years ago as a London hack was horrible - heavy, poorly aligned, you could slide a guitar plectrum between the lugs and the tubing where the braze hadn't penetrated.
 
I had a TSUNODA GRAND PRIX. It was a xmas present in the early 80's, bright red with half chromed forks, seat stays and chain stays.
Mostly Suntour components, the things i always remember were there headset coming loose all the time, the huge gap between the rear wheel/tyre and seat tube and falling off it and skinning my elbow down to the bone!!!!!!!
