Alright lads, who`s going???

I wanna sort this out so it`s done right...

1) Assign a rally point outside JR Kaihin-Makuhari Station.

2) Have a plan of attack so that (if need be) we can get through all the important stands and displays on the Saturday.

3) Assign group leaders (with phones) who can contact each other if we get split up - if theres enough people going that is...

4) Get lagered...

5) Have a "most candid Campaign girl photo" competition... with prizes :D

6) Go up Tokyo Tower and on the Sunday for those that will stay overnight.

Anybody up for a little Auto Salon action? I know you are Dave!!!

Gents!

myself and 5 others will be in japan from the 1st January through to the 11th, planning on going to TAS on the 10th.

will there be an opportunity to meet up before TAS? dinner? catchup? ropongi? :rolleyes:

we are staying at the Sumisho hotel near Tokyo Central Station is that close to any of you guys?

Can you hire mobile phones from Narita Airport?

The problem for us is that we have 6 in our group. We have 1 contact over there who has an awesome chaser drift car and he said he was going to take us drifting and to the daikoku carpark and freeway runs, but we won't all be able to fit in his car!

Frankie - how about we co-ordinate a meeting spot on the 10th outside the convention centre?

We are staying in Chiba at the New Tsukamoto hotel so we are closer to TAS that you guys as I understand it.

Franky, we have to definatly meet up in japan. Mobile phone rental might be an idea, I shall have my aussie one with me so whilst its expensive to call we could SMS! hehe.

yeah warm clothes, thats a thought eh.

come on man :rolleyes: GSM wont work in Japan! your Oz phone will be useless over there i believe?

nick, i've sent yang this thread, he knows spots around the convention centre so between rezz & yang we should be able to meet, as for you guys :( well ... just look for tourists like us :(:) :) hrm, maybe we should all get SAU shirts and wear them on the day :)

Alright! Sounds like we`ve got a contingent going...

Franks: You say you`ve got 6 guys coming?

Blitz: PM sent mate, sorry. You`ve got 6 coming too.

Plus Funkymonkey with the "J-Spec" guys... (how many Funkymonkey?)

...and of course me and Demon Dave and our wives...

Thats about 20 people?

Two groups of 10? I have a feeling the J-Sec guys won`t want to join our group though?

god knows how many with j-spec... they've got their own posse up there apparently, coz they have their agents n suppliers n all that acting as tour guide takin em to all the garages, drift comps and autosalon. I was thinkin of taggin along with them, but I'd be more than happy to meet up with you guys.

Thats cool Funky, whatever suits you best. I wouldn`t mind meeting the J-Spec guys anyway.

Theres also 3 or 4 other guys that might be coming along with me, but they`re only tentatively booked.

    • To add to that very useful summary, even in the race/rally r32 gtr I have good quality, new(ish) poly bushes everywhere because that is what rules require, and the handling is excellent. Of course, the car doesn't do many klm but I'd still expect poly bushes to last better in road use than sphericals (especially as I have a couple of klm of dirt road to stuff sphericals up) I would change the front upper arms to spherical if I was allowed to, because the poly bushes flog out often, but otherwise new bushes (and ball joints) and a good alignment can make a world of difference
    • Any chance you can get a Nistune board installed instead and set the speed limit to whatever your tires can handle?
    • Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf
    • Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.   
    • People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
