  1. Looks like it'll cost about 8500 yen each way by the Bullet Train. See you up there. Come say hi if you like. I am a tall guy driving an Orange S14.

    Going To Japan

    Daikokufuto is kinda quiet these days, as it seems the police are kinda strict in Tokyo.

    Please Help!

    Seems like that's the case. Is Sugo up in Tohoku? Bit far...
  4. Realistically, I'd drive a stock Evo 7, 8, 9, or 10... That's a street sleeper. Undefectable, comfortable, rocketship. Unrealistically, I'd like to build a silly twin turbo 1UZ powered MX5, slightly lowered with 14 x 8 SSR Mk III's.
  5. Kun is a term of endearment added to the end of peoples names. These people must be MALE and UNDER you in social standing. Using Kun is tricky, because it can come across sounding patronizing.
  6. Are you coming to Drift Matsuri at Ebisu Circuit? It's May 2nd and 3rd! Ebisu Circuit is in f*kushima Prefecture, in the mountains behind Nihonmatsu Town. You can get to Nihonmatsu by train (about 3 hours from Tokyo) and then take a taxi to Ebisu Circuit. (Tell the taxi driver 'Safari Park' if he doesn't know where the circuit is)
  7. lol If I were to call my girlfriend Rie Kun, I would get the silent treatment for weeks.
  8. way too much work. might look at it later.

  10. I have a Japanese board. It's called a DILLION and was only 10 000 yen. It's quite plain, but it's great! Really springy and smooth to turn!
  11. Cherry Blossoms are just about finished for the year in Kanto! You'll just miss out! Honjo Circuit is just outside a town called Honjo. You can access Honjo by the Takasaki line from Tokyo! Nikko is near Utsonomiya. You can get there from Tokyo on the Utsonomiya line! From the station, you can get a cab, but I'd ask the cabby if he knows where he's going before setting off. (in japanese)
  12. Will you bring this car over to Tsukuba for the Superlap? I don't live too far from Tsukuba Circuit, so I'd love to see it in action!
  13. lol yeah unfortunatley with the expiry of my original RB20 shortly after buying this car, it hasnt seen much drifting whatsoever. its all there though. all you'd need to drift it is money for tyres and talent. ps im sorry i havent been able to get any more photo's. its been a combination of me having to study for marketing exams, my lack of access to the workshop and my inability to find my bloody digicam.
  14. Thanks for the interest Inark and Colleen. I will try and get those photo's by tonight for you guys. oh and thanks anyway to the swappers, but no swaps please guys i'm selling with the intention of freeing up cash for an investment. PS the car was in Drift Battle Issue #19

  17. thats a minter mate!!! I sold mine not so long ago!! only got 8400 though
  18. Lewis Hamilton is my new hero i wish he drove for scuderia ferrari!
  19. The 1JZGTE uses twin CT12A's and the turbochargers are not sequential The 2JZGTE uses twin CT12A's or CT20's and the turbochargers are sequential. This is achieved by the use of a special valve in the exhaust manifold that directs all of the exhaust gasses through one turbocharger until about 4000rpm where the valve opens and the exhaust gasses are then directed evenly between the turbo's. On both the JZ series of engine, the turbochargers are identically sized. Manufacturers have struggled over the years to design a sequential twin turbo setup that uses differnt sized turbochargers. Subaru had a crack at it with their early 2 litre Legacy/Liberty B4's and failed dismally. The B4 had a massive power hole between the 1st turbo and the 2nd turbo.
  20. Im going to be in Italy at the time of the Monaco GP this year but unfortunately i will be down around the Amalfi Coast so im going to miss out. Going to try and get some genuine Ferrari F1 gear though.
  21. thats fkn awesome!!! I hope one day to meet Michael Schumacher.
  22. firstly it has to be manual. secondly: NITROUS its the only way you'll go fast NA, short of a V8 conversion
  23. do you know what 2 NM extra torque would feel like? you could get better fuel efficiency by buying a $350 brand new Apex SAFC and leaning out the mixtures a bit. you'd even get better power and torque from that also. And guess what, you wouldnt have to rip the motor out!
