ok, photo of the bad ass stagea 260 at Fuji for nick. and a hard core S15. Now are there any pic requests? like more TAS? more drift? more Time attack? more saurus cars? more random? Interest seems to have petered out now, so unless people want to see something in particular I might just let this baby die a natural death. I hope you all enjoyed the pic sharing. :pwned:

ok.

this is gaienhigashi-dori. This is one of the 4 streets that meet at Roppongi crossing and is the street I was staying on. nice typical Tokyo Street scene. I have some more from Shinjuku etc and will post later.

this is sunset at Shinjuku looking west from the JR east exit. busiest train station in the world. something like 4 million people a day pass through JR shinjuku station.

god i miss japan already. ok, more pics.

the police guarding my street. they are there every day of the week. on the other side is a van full of cops with riot gear and the most nuts tasars I've ever seen. they are ready to close off the street at a moments notice from the guy on lookout.

and this is what they are guarding against. japanese nationalists protesting against russian ownership of a small island to the north of japan. they want it returned as japanese territory. note: this shot taken from my bedroom balcony. You should hear the noise when these guys roll up in their mafia vans. every van has massive loud speakers on top and they go nuts. surpised the sh1t out of me the first time they rocked up whilst I was sleeping.

this is the view from my living room balcony. If you want to impress the ladies in japan, you need a nice place like this!

This one is looking towards Roppongi Hills (the big building is Roppongi Hills Mori Tower).

lol, ok. sometimes I wonder if it's not too self-indulgent. just me reminiscing about japan. but I did think some people who haven't been would be keen to see what I get up to there.

I will go through my pics later and post more everything. :pwned:

Thanks for the Stagea pics, Richard.

I think everyone is waiting for you to do a massive dump of images upon your return (assuming you're still over there), and I'm sure interest will rise again.

It's good how there's a variety of shots: car porn, city scapes, the people of Japan, the country areas, landmarks, etc.

Kinda like the old photo threads that Rezz used to do. (Where is he, by the way?)

I'm back in sydney now :P sadly. lol

yeah I'm not sure where Rezz is right now. we were supposed to meet up in Tokyo but he didn't call or email so I guess something must have gone wrong with his plans :)

I may have some more for you anna. I'll have a look later, and try and upload the motherlode of pics for everyone. :happy: got gigs and gigs of the stuff.

mmm, I will possibly be back there in may just after golden week. yeah I have a mortgage which sucks balls. but I always say I'm here for a good time, not a long time. so I don't sweat the spending too much. :(

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
