Finally, here are just a few tempters that give you guys an idea of the calibre of cars on show in and around Japan.

Beer Baron and I returned from Japan this morning after 2 weeks of soaking up the mecca of performance cars

Lets get things started:

We visted the Nismo Omori factory where we were treated to a private photo session involving both the sought after Z-Tune R34 GTR, and the R1 Spec R33 GTR - If these pictures dont excite you, you dont deserve a Skyline!

Need a new RB26? Omori can assist you for a modest fee!

Tokyo Autosalon proved to be a smaller show that previous years, but there was still a plentiful display of eye candy (and some nice cars too!)

Im not sure, but apparently there were promo girls in attendance?

Trust / Greddy had some great high mount kits on display

22's - The must have accessory for your BMW

One of our UK comrades from the GTR UK forums owned this incredible full Carbon fibre body R34 GTR that was just finished by Sunline Racing in time for Tokyo Autosalon. In fact the owner told me that Autosalon was the first time he had seen the car, since handing over a stockish white coloured BNR34 to the guys at Sunline with the instructions to make it a monster.

The car is running a built NUR spec RB26 with Trust T517Z turbines

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
