HEehe not sure if you have heard of a thing called Golden Week, but if you think the train is going to be a marathon than you are going to love driving! But having a car for drift matsuri does make life much much easier.

But basically you just get on the Tokyo Gaikan Expressway from wherever you are in Tokyo, then change onto the Tohoku Expressway, get off at Nihonmatsu and follow the closest Silvia. I always get lost getting from Nihonmatsu to Ebisu because I am usually about to fall asleep. Also because I used the hideously inadequate map provided by Ebisu's website (see attached).

Should cost around $70 in tolls, but I stopped counting after a while I must admit.

It is 280km or so from Tokyo and should take about 6 hours give or take a couple of hours.

To save yourself a lot of heartache buy the Shobunsha Road Atlas... it won't get your to Ebisu, but it will get you to Nihonmatsu. Also buy a compass.

edit: I attached some more useful maps to get you from Nihonmatsu to Ebisu Circuit, they all show the same thing so try to overlay them. I also attached a picture of what you will see when you actually get there, as it may not be what you expect.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
