I'll be in Tokyo on the 9th till the 12th April and would wanna visit the Prince & Skyline Museum.

I know it's located quite a distance out of Tokyo.

Can anyone here guide me on the below:-

1) Is it open on the dates I'm going there?

2) How to get there from Tokyo? I'll be staying in Ikebukuro.

3) Entrance fee?

4) What does the shop in the museum has to offer?

Btw, any speedshops I can visit in Tokyo? Second-hand parts shops? Autobacs?

Thanks in advance.

If it is the magical 'warehouse' collection of Nismo competition cars from around the world you're talking about............. ?

It's become a 'closed to the public' kinda thing. I know people who've been to this magical place and I have pics of the cars from inside. Its in one of the factories that Mr Ghosn shut down when he started his re-shaping (saving) of Nissan.

Pm me about it.....

Have you visited Zama as well? I visited once..think its called the heritage collection @ Zama ....heard the cars have since been relocated

its a Nissan Lovers wet dream, every single competition vehicle and representative model are stored there...

my favourite is still the 2001 GT_R concept and the SWB R34 GT-R....never thought these models existed...

anw, the curator told me some of the concepts may be scrapped as theres no proper storage to keep them...sigh..

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
