Hey guys,

As most of you know I'm in Tokyo at the moment. Ive been all around Japan 3 years ago but let me say Tokyo is something else. I went to Disney Land yesterday, and D1 Round 7 @ Fuji Speedway on Sunday which was of course my personal highlight, as well as getting to sit in the official Toyota F1 Car in Harajuku. That was amazing seeing an F1 car in the flesh.

Anyways enough chit chat, I thought I'd show you guys SOME pictures from D1 Round 7. I'll upload more as well as videos when I get back next week. But this should give you a taste of what I was lucky enough to experience, although the pictures don't really do it justice.. here they are... oh and the first one is my logo I got tat'd today by www.NS7Dept.com :P

edit: also thanks goes out to SAU sponsor Ben from J-Spec Imports for helping me out and clearing a few things about my future toy next year hopefully. :P

Nice, I was in Japan about 2 weeks back, whats the disneyland like? I went to disney sea lol :)

I made that mistake and got off at Disney Sea but theres a monorail that goes to Disney Land there. Disney Land is remarkable, although childish the work they've put into it blew me away. And its always funny seeing japanese versions of cinderella lol.

This is my fave pic from D1, http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1022...mp;id=501249689 I spent as much time in the parking lot than I did watching the drifting. :D

Also if you see the pic of the white S15 with a shot targetted on the rear wheel, are the WedsSport SA-70 wheels that are arriving for me in a few weeks that I've waiting 4 months for. Seeing them in person confirmed they were worth every penny, and the wait!

Few more days here so I'm off for now.

Matta ne!

has Ben netted a japanese girlfriend yet?

hahaha nar he hasn't. :P I was telling him how I spent $600 on a chick at Kabukicho on my first night (Most foreigners will do the same.) who was one of the RLD girls but like fell in love with me and gave me her #. Chick was 30 and looked 22. She thought I was 23 although 19, underage overseas clubbin ftw. :ninja:

Everyone has a gf here it's depressing :ninja: Where are the japanese clubs in Perth I gota see what I can scoop up. lol.

    • I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
    • Welcome.  Here's what I have noticed about forum vs FB..... FB; seems to be wallet racing, and the same few questions asked over and over. There *may* be some groups that are closer knit, but most have changed for the worse. SAU; unfortunately, no longer in its glory days. But....genuine people with similar interests. Not all about how much you spent and saying you dont have enough power. Sooooooo much knowledge available. Have personally seen people post up about literally topics I made myself, asking on FB like no one has done it before. Most has been done, and most of that is here.   If you ever feel like just general chatting theres the wasteland.  Other interests are also generally covered in other areas of the forum. Hope you enjoy hanging around. We would love to have you.   P.s. nice 32 😀
