The Omori factory?

Omorikaigan station on the Keikyu line, which goes through Shinagawa.

Head out of the station and go North East. It's across the road from the horse race course.

Yeah pretty much this exactly.

Take Yamanote line to Shinagawa. Switch to/follow the signs to the Keikyu line, buy a ticket at the window to Omorikaigan station I think its 160yen from Shinagawa.

Its the first platform you see when you go thru the ticket gates. Wait for a local train. If you accidently get the express it takes you 4 stops past Omorikaigan and you have to get off and backtrack. Done this when in a hurry before its a royal pain in the ass.

Get off the train at Omorikaigan, go outside the station and take the pedestrian footbridge to the other side of the road. Go down to your left and walk for 5-10 minutes till you hit Nismo.

Cross your fingers that they bothered to open up the shop today because half the times i've gone they've been closed for random reasons.

Easiest place to get to tho.

Nismo Omori Factory is most definately a must see when visiting Tokyo :(

Excercise self control while in the shop otherwise you will walk out with a big bag of random Nismo parts and accessories that you didn't plan to buy ;)

I'll be staying in the Sunshine City Prince Hotel located in Ikebukuro.

Can anyone direct me on how to get to the NISMO/OMORI factory and is it open from the 9th to the 14th April 2007?

I think everything you need to answer your own question is in this thread. Maybe have a read? ^^^^^^^^^

HaHaHa yeah, we went the four extra stops too!! went back too far and went to check out Nissan Red Stage... which turned out to be a dealership. They had a parts shop with nismo gear too tho.

Loved the race cars in the front of Omori Factory tho, and super clean workshop.

You can see the NISMO sign from the train (on the left as you head out).... you'll love it!

Directions above are spot on.

Its a Garage cum showroom, The office building behind is the HQ for Nismo Japan.

The security for the hq is very strict. Their inhouse garage is located on the 3rd or 4th floor....

Lots of secret projects as well as the latest development models stowed there.. When i last visited on business, I was shown the last ever R34 Z Tune D1 S15 Street legal project and 2006 JGTC car.

What is at the Omori Factory? Is it a garage? Or just a Nismo Store... can anyone go there?

from Shinagawa, make sure you get the local train which has black Kanji on the side of the train. or the blue writeing (express)which if you get it, you will have to get off atTachiagawa and wait for the local train. train runs parralall to the main road Daiichikahen.

Sorry i lived near there for 10 years and only went there once

Sorry for the late reply (been super busy lately), but big thanks to all for the info

just an update - was there last week they are open on fridays from 1pm to 4pm and sat and sunday from i think it was 10am? through to 4ish. I went there on friday at like mid day had to drive around for an hour in lunch time traffic to burn off some time - not fun lol. But worth the visit. lot smaller than I expected but the R34 Xanavi made it worthwhile (and i bought a crap load of stuff at the shop)

We were lucky enough to see a R34 Z tune there (customer's car) we spoke to the nissan guy there he said that for a premium cost you can have your R34 converted to Z tune level. Damn the Z tunes look nice though, nothing makes it look excessive...just dangerous hehe

    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
