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

Cheers

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

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
