Asakusa is a very nice part of town... (you can get heaps of those plastic food things that you see eveyrwhere, in Asakusa) I stayed at a Andon Roykan (in Minowa, which i very close to Asakusa), cheap, clean and very nice. It's about $90 AUD for room a night... thats 1 or 2 people!

Just book heaps of time ahead. :ermm: And order the brekkie...it's cheap and good!

Oh and when you leave each morning, book the jacuzzi for that night when you return :)

I'd love to go the TAS, but i won't make it. I'll be back in Japan in May :)

Thats it! I'm in...I'm going to TAS. I've got enough points to upgrade my ass from site to TAS and back so that nice. I'm going to get there a few days early and have a look around then go to Hokkaido after the show for some skiing or in my case falling. Unfortunately I don't have a lonely planet over here at the moment and I'm trying to pick a resort. So far I've looked at Furano, Tomamu and Niseko.

What I'm after is a place that has...

Western style Hotel

Good snow

Good facilities

Good party

and where the Aussies or dare I say it Americans, dont out number the Japanese (not you guys of course :D . )

I dont mind spending a few bucks for the right resort.

I'd appreciate any info you can provide. BTW I'm happy to meet up at TAS or anywhere else while I'm there for a Sake with SAU'ers.

PS:Yes, I did search but all the ski info is a couple of years old.

If you can make it to Tanzania, your in with a shot.

Keio Plaza in Shinjuku on Wednesday Night till the next Tuesday then Hakuba for a week, I just wish I had paid for my hotels before the nonsense started. I'm up for a meet, drinks, workshops, whatever.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
