Yeah, guys... heading to Japan mid feb... looking at visiting both Nismo Omori factory and Up Garage.

Just like to see out of all their stores which Up Garage is easiest or closest to Tokyo.... same goes for Nismo factory... it is open to public right? or is it Nismo shop that i am thinking?

Any help will be appreciated!

Cheers

UP GARAGE

tokyo station to chiba, get off at chiba and get onto the local line there and goto chiba chuo ( its about a 5 min walk but recommend you catch the train ) when you get to chiba chuo station you head left down the corridore with shops and out the door , when you get out side you will see a park ( realy just a walking area ) follow that till you hit the foot bridge, walk up the foot bridge till your near the middle ( busy highway under you at this stage )look right and about 100M down you will see the big up garage sign and there you go.

time : 110 min each way

NISMO FACTORY

tokyo station to shinagawa station, get to the keikyu line ( ask someone at the ticket booth as it took me 20 min to find it and i missed the train so had to wait ) and buy a ticket to Omorikaigan, once there exit the gates and the station, head left and you will see a skinny foot bridge to the other side of the road, take it to the other side and head left when you come to the other side , keep walking 10 mins and you will see it .

Nismo factory is only open wed , thurs, fri , sat , sun - 10am to 6pm but the store is only open fri, sat, sun, 1pm - 6pm

Time : about 90min each way

hope it helps

I was there last year. They had a Calsonic GTR on show out the front (which you can't get close to), inside there's a shop with a few knick knacks, and a window into the workshop which you're not allowed into. From memory they had an R34 GTR Nur and a 32 GTR of some kind both up on jacks getting looked at. I found it to be a waste of time but you may get something out of it.

Nismo is definatly worth a trip IMO, but they have funky opening hours, so call ahead. If you cant speak Japanese, try asking the person at the front desk of your hotel to call for you. Japanese are VERY friendly and helpful like that!

:P

Theres actually a local train that's closer to the factory. Can't remember the name. The JR line is a fair walk.

Also book into the place to do a tour.. We just rocked up and they didn't have time to show us around :)

Take it from someone who passes Nismo Omori weekly, dont make it your main itinerary. If you are close and can make the trip, great, if not, I would spend my time going to other places where you can see more.

What other places would you recommend?

Im heading to Japan in July and I had pencilled in teh Nismo factory & the Nissan Museum but that's only cos I dont know of anywhere else good to go....

Japan is an AWESOME place and its true the NISMO OMORI FACTORY isnt as good as it looks.

I have been to Japan twice and both times been there. The shop is quite small and they normally dont let u go into the workshop....

But if ur close i guess its worth it.

Top Sercet is another place that took forever to get to and wasnt as good as people make it out to be.

Hey N1GTR how did u get the photos in the workshop??

They didnt allow us to go in there or to take photos

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
