Okay just had word back from work - at the moment, I'm 100% in!

I'll just need dates and stuff because I have alot coming up in the next few months, but most of the stuff I can work around.

Great stuff.. dates are in first post.. approx 11th-22nd Jan so I have booked with my work for monday 11th - monday 25th off = 2weeks off.

Well guys, I will keep this open til after the Berri/loxton show ie. just over a week now and see how we go,

At this stage we have:

Myself

Dark.sky

Cronic

all confirmed,

but need more numbers to make it happen...can take another 4-6 people.

Get to it folks, check those dates and book time off... :devil:

Be good to have you along Craig...

As it stands the interest is a little low for this year... perhaps due to short notice.

A few have said they would be keen for 2011 Autosalon.

If I am still with my current job at that point I may try this again for the 2011 trip.... however may change employment half way thru the year which means I won't be doing 2011. Keep an eye out for a thread round mid 2010...

Autosalon Tokyo is always early-mid January if that helps with organising holidays over a year in advance!!

mega keen, but i already have to scrape together $10k for another trip. dont like my chances of affording this one too. :)

I hear ya.... have spent over 30 grand in the last 3-4 years travelling.... worth every cent too.

I'll leave it open for another week or so Dion, but it seems nobody is posting up things like "interested but need to check with bank/work/missus etc" so its not looking good, but I'm not gonna can it yet.

I still want to go, but need a couple more... probably four people (plus me) minimum to make it worthwile.

I know Shane (RBWARE) is a bit keen on going again also.... :D

Im in for 2011. But i'll be going for a month, with 10k spending money :D

Let me know when you go, ill go too, i wanna go for a longish time. I would like to visit some auto related places, but i would mainly want to go to visit Akihabara, and just see the culture, and sights...i am a bit of a anime/jap fan boy.

I wouldn't mind going mid next year, but if people are going in 2011, I'll go then.

$1750?

wow thats quite cheap, went to romania, europe last year in july, in their peak season, and i paid 3500 only for the tickets.

well worth the money though, seeing another culture and meeting relative i aint seen since 4yrs old.

Yep I have paid between 1500-1900 every time i have been.... except the last one.. we got a super special for $860 return!!

Sorry Martin, have only just noticed this post .... damn SAU is supposed to notify me when EVERY new post is made, but seems to be playing up lately.

Put me down on the 'probably not' list at stage mate - will let you know for sure by the Loxton show - have had some major expenses lately (including buying the V35, my $1,000 scuba gear and course I paid for this weekend), so have a slight issue with the missus regarding cash flow .... but I will work on her this week and let you know on the weekend if that is ok. TBH 2011 would probably be much better for me.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
