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?

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

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
