Ok I'm not the resident Osaka drift specialist, but I may be able to help (not that it's recommended).

Where are you staying? Because you're going to have to take the Kintetsu Osaka line from Tsuruhashi Station. Tsuruhashi is on the Osaka loop line so it's easily accessable.

So Umeda (loop line) -> Tsuruhashi (go to Kintetsu Osaka line platform) -> Nabori Station.

Now, as far as I know Nabori Station is closest to Meihan Sportsland, but it's waaaay in the country and you'll have to get a bus or cab to the circuit. I have no idea about the bus, but it's slow travel on tiny country roads out there from what I remember around Nabori.

Ok, having said all that, you could twist my arm and get me to drive you out there :) Bear in mind gas costs a metric ****load and theres tolls to pay too.

So bottom line is, pay a fair bit to go by car but get there and leave at your leisure/not worry about the time or, save money but waste time/risk losing your way on PT.

hey

thanks for your reply, we are staying at hotel kinki which is like 5 min walk from jr osaka station and hankyu umeda station

you got me abit confused there i was trying to find where Nabori Station was but there is no Nabori, only Nabari :)

i thought that Murouguchi Station would be close and easy access to Meihan Sportsland, is there many taxi around there that would be able to take us from the station to the circuit and back?

theres going to be 6 of us so if you would like to drive us all that would be sweet as hahahaha of course we pay for petrol and toll roads :thumbsup:

would be great to drive there but unfortunatelly our means for getting around japan is by public transport, because we didnt plan to drive over there

Nabari -> typo... glad you could figure it out :bunny:

I thought so too, I just thought the chances of getting a taxi where much greater from Nabari... it's up to you.

My car only fits 4 including driver. Sould've asked how big your party was :D

Sounds like you know the way the PT system works, so there's no problem with that then? Just get to whichever station you think is easiest (Muroguchi etc) and hail a taxi. Whether there are taxis there or not is another thing entirely... I'm sure the front desk at the hotel could help you out.

What do yo mean by PT system, sorry

looking at google maps your right nabori looks like a bigger place then Muroguchi

cheers

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
