Hey Guys....

Here are some pics from this years auto-salon here in Tokyo. This year as always it was held in Makuhari Messe, about 30 minutes from the centre of tokyo by train. The show is always an event to look forward to in the motorsports calendar, but for some reason (maybe this being the 3rd time straight going) this years show just didn't seem to hit the spot. Some big makers like Veilside weren't there and a lot of cars that were there last year made their appearance again with very few, if any changes. Of course this show still is better than anything we've got in Australia, but hopefully next time this show will be a litte bit more better. Either way as always its always fun and a great day, so i hope you enjoy the pics and leave a comment!

Thanks!

nice pics mate, the res didnt come out too bad. i didnt see that ogura clutch babe! she looks a lot like my ex...

did you check my thread on general automotive discussions thread yet pete?

I was fortunate enough to go to this years Tokyo Autosalon also... took about 600 photos ... crazy stuff!!

We had almost as much fun just walking around the carpark too!!

I also went to top secret workshop and checked out that v12 supra... awesome!! Sounds unbelievable in the flesh when running too. So did the v8 twin turbo skyline.

My personal favourite was the blue R32 GTR near the front of the first hall (you got a good shot of it above), but I am a little biased there.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
