Beer Baron's Japan Photo Diary

[Beer Baron]

wouldn't surprise me one bit. prime build awesome, no nonsense cars. with plenty of power. They had a 3.2l 2J just finished when I was there that will make silly power. Hell even my RB26 they are building right now will be pretty respectable.

[Angus Smart]

nice photos richard! keep em comming when you feel up to it! i know its a painful process but your doing a good job!

[Bass Junky]

Baron.

I hate you.

That is all.

[Beer Baron]

lol. a guy who had his engine built at mines told me the guy that was driving the R35 on the freeway was the president of mines. that's pretty cool!

[NYTSKY]

Will be interesting to see what Mines and MCR do with their new toys.

[Beer Baron]

I've already seen the list of mines tuning parts they already have available and there is some cool shit for sure.

Sweet pics, we're all jealous

[Beer Baron]

don't be too jealous. remember 3-4 hours sleep per night. lots of driving, train, etc. getting freezing cold AND sunburnt on the same day and going through yen like it was monopoly money. but yeah it is all worthwhile

I watched enough BMI dvds to a point where i can recognise him lol.

[Beer Baron]

you can see what he's thinking:

"if that white crazy man falls out of the window at this speed his over-size head is going to dent my GTR"

[wrxkilla]

The car is built by Top Secret. it's unique in that only one tuning shop has worked on it. pretty cool. they even had the robson leather interior done for the old owner. It's packing a HKS 2.8l kit, with Top secret headwork and top secret V-cam, with T04Z running up to nearly 2 bar boost. Brembo F50s, aragosta suspension, volk progressive spoke 19s, one off titanium top secret exhaust and screamer, hks f con v pro and lots of other goodies. it was featured in HPI when it was owned by another mate Dave. he is upgrading (if that's possible!?!?!?!) and sold it to a friend.

some pics from the drift event at Fuji Speedway. with 3 D1 drivers there it was pretty good.

This car belongs to the owner of run free. he drifts the JIC RX8 in D1, but this is his personal car. very nice too.

one last one before I crash. when they were drifing as a team it was an awesome sight to see 5 or 6 cars all drifting withing feet of each other.
