The closest Autobacs with anything that you'll be interested in is at Tokyo Bay. It's pretty crappy though.

Check out Crystal over in Chiba or Carshop Nagano, located in Aoto...

Nagano is probably easier to get to than Crystal.

Both have many more parts available than Autobacs and are also significantly cheaper.

lmao at nagano he he

LOL i'm not from japan, I don't speak any japanese, and I didn't know that shop called carshop nagano wasn't in nagano!! LMAO! err wait.

Anyways, I'm currently in Asakusa how hard would it be to get to either store from here? From what I could see of google maps it's the next river over from where I am.

From Tokyo station they need to take the "Sobu Line" to Chiba Station, then from Chiba Station they need to catch the Chibatoshi-Monorail to a station called "Sports-Center", then walk north past Maccas and a toyota dealer and it should be on the left!

Definitely check out Crystal. It's about a 10 minute walk from Sports Center, and very much worth it :)

One thing to remember, when you're grabbing things left, right and centre off the shelves, is that you have to carry all your purchases during your walk BACK to the station :(

I am not sure if there is a bus from there, I know there are buses from Gotemba (610yen) and Suruga-Oyama (570yen) or the taxi for about 3,500yen.

There are tickets on the gate but it is probably worth going to Lawsons convenientce store and getting tickets from there, using the ticket machine things they have. 99% you will need one for Sunday.

L Lawson Ticket code:

Saturday's code 31280 (1,500yen) 2,000yen at the gate

Sunday's code 31290 (2,300yen) 3,300yen at the gate

p.s. Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow so no D1 for me, also it is pretty far from Osaka. I might go to Suzuka.

Can someone tell me the best place in Japan to find a set of floor mats like these for my dr30?

http://page3.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/aucti...bluege_web_shop

The best place is Tanigawaya shop in Mie 三重県鈴鹿市神戸3-11-7 [〒513-0801]

Karo R30 "Wooly" floor mats

But there is a lead time on orders so in all honesty it would be better to get someone to order them.

    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
