Awesome job with the photos. You must know some people over there.

Do you have any Wangan pics or vid?

Hi mate, I've never taken much vid in japan. some drifting etc. but I'm usually too busy doing stuff to want to film or even photograph things. sometimes you don't really enjoy stuff if you just spend all the time taking pics. plus it's hard to film/shoot when driving. :P there are some pics there from daikoku and other wangan rest stops which are actually built onto (under or on the side of) the wangan. I've taken pics like that when we stop there to meet people, have a drink, break etc.

I just wanted to say that this was a great thread! Thank you for sharing your travels with us! I've been to Japan before when I was a lot younger, and I'm planning to head back next year!

got a small piece of updated news of sorts. in a couple of months I'm heading out for a month and a bit of treking around. going to drive the nurburgring for a few days (been meaning to for ages), spend a few weeks in italy and a few other europe stops and then of course BACK TO JAPAN! so I should finally have some NEW pics to upload in the japan photo diary. In the meantime it might also motivate me a bit to go through the old pics I've never sorted and upload some of them. :( so hang in there.

Hi Beer Baron, have you got any high-res photos of the Nissan R92CP from the Nismo Festival photo album? It's the blue/white/red LeMans racer with the gold/chrome BBS (?) rims :/

If you do could, you PM me with a few? I've never been able to find any on the web :laugh:

hi mate, I have all the pics in hi-res still and many more I never got around to posting. I'm just about to move house again though so time is tight at the moment. give me a few weeks and I will get some out. in fact I'm going back to japan next month so I'll have some fresh pics too. :)

Hey Damo, yeah I don't check often. I should have some pics of the gold Saurus car as I have sat in it before and made car noises. lol. Took lots of pics but sadly never been for a drive in it. BUT I have been out in Hayashi-san's (owner of Saurus) 1200hp DAILY R34 GTR. yes those numbers are correct (well at least according to him!).

When I get my old PC fired up again, I'll see what I can dig out for you.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      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.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
