Tokyo Drift Areas And High Speed Runs


Recommended Posts

If you're looking forward seeing some drift spots, when you heading up Tokyo area, you can try go to Urayasu (浦安) area which is near Tokyo Disneyland, every Thrusday or Friday you may able to find many drifters (野郎), of course they wont drift near the Disneyland area, they will first meet at some convineient store, like 7-11 or Lawson nearby, then they'll drive to some factory area.... Nowadays police take drift very seroiusly, it may be hard to see any, it really depends your luck.

If you also interest top speed (最高速) , or if you have mates around Chiba area, you can go to AQUA line in Chiba area, it's actually a long fast express tunnel which connects Chiba Kisaradu (木更津), Yokohama (横浜) and Kanagawa (神奈川県), this AQUA line is a good run, but each run will cost you 4000yen in tolls, so people will just do a U turn in the parking area and do a few high speed runs... since this express line very expensive, not many normal commuters will use it, so Friday night you might able to see many zeroyon ゼロヨン (0 - 400m drags), a few years ago Wangan Kousoku 湾岸高速 was the best place , but nowadays there are too many accidents, so it might be hard to see any runs on the Kousoku 高速。。。。there might be a bigger drifting scene around Osaka.

Regarding getting parts in Upgarage...I bet it might be hard to get good parts around there, since I think many good parts have already been bought by other poeple or something, and Upgarage prices aren't really bargains anyway, the best place to get bargains would be on Yahoo auctions, Goo parts, and some internet online stores. If you want to find some wecking yards in Tokyo area, I can list you some or search for you, and nowadays finding places that do front cuts are very hard to find since the govenment is changing the rules every few years. You could try Osaka, it might have more wekcing places, I have heard that at TRIAL they help customers with front cut/half cuts... Anyway good luck for your trip.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
