Wondering if anyone is going over for this? is there another thread? what are the dates and the like??

it seems jetstar is good for trips? are they worth it? or better off flying someone who will get there..

2000 return for 2 adults seems ok.

^ PM Ash or Richard I guess.

If its 2010 I could be up for it...especially if its snowing in Hakuba, although it was mostly R35s on display at TAS last year. I'd have to budget though...cost me a wack last time and all I brought home was t-shirts and souvenirs. Have you thought about the Nismo Festival instead?

You should hit Hokkaido Mr Keets...

you can pick up tickets thru Skymark for 9000 yen Haneda to Chitose/sapporo..then bus to Niseko..

I have a place up there I could do for cheap plus beers..doesnt come with candy but!!

meh. TAS is ok. worth doing once I guess. but I'm way over it these days. it's no where near as good as it used to be. and there are heaps better car related events to do and see in japan. and thankfully plenty that aren't on in the peak of winter! (unless you want to go boarding in which case it's perfect).

so yeah, I won't be doing TAS, nothing really special on the horizon for it to make me want to go. unless they are putting the 32 GTR back in production with a rear AWD transaxle with 6 speed DSG and a 3.5 litre triple turbo RB26 that revs to 12,000rpm. are they?

What date it the nismo Festival usually on? i'm not that keen on Tas, would rather just go for the snow, and Mark your offer sounds good :)

But i neeeds the candy!!

i shall see how i go for the next few months with money

I will be possibly be attending TAS2010.

Will there be any other possible motorsport events around this time around the Tokyo vincinity?

interested in Nismo festival aswell.

Is there some sort of motorsport calendar?

Thanks

Stranger things have happened though.

Its the next illogical step so some would argue its the most logical step.

Transaxel Pre-35 GTR with 1200hp from an RB26, isn't really that hard to imagine.

lol Dr. Evil-rolled

We will have to wait a while for the dates on the Nismo Festival. Probably August before we hear anything. As for snow, if it is at the end of November we'd be lucky. A couple of weeks into December would be good.

You definitely don't want to combine snow and Nismo Fest... That's what it was like in 2005. It really sucked cos all these special cars were just sent on parade laps, and some didn't even come out of the garage (things like the open top Grand Prix cars of the '60's). And of course, no smoke or high speeds for the drift exhibition match. :pirate: But anyway it was an incredible experience. And thanks to the chaps of R31 House who drove us there and back.

    • 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?
