I am looking to head over and book this tour;

http://www.dsporttas.com/

Last year looked really good. VIP entry to TAS, spend a day at Fuji Speedway and ride shotgun with local drifters. Visit Daikoku Futo. visit a few workshops, experience the nightlife and then come home.

Sounds ideal to me!

$1699US excluding flights if booked before 31/10/2010

This sounds pretty awesome. I wonder if anyone from SAU has done this before?

cool, looks like there will be a few Aussies there then. Should be good.

Finalised my Early Bird payment today also with a mate.

Only thing on the itinerary I am unsure about is Top Fuel. They are a Honda tuning specialist. Hopefully its worth a look! :)

yeah it will be worth a look. nothing wrong with japanese honda tuning. and this is coming from a bloke who has owned approx 20 skylines and a total of zero hondas but they still make some great cars and there are some great honda tuners in japan. :whistling:

    • The housing it self made minimum differences, while the exhaust manifold made a difference. 6 Boost T3 divided will do fine. ATR43SS3ProR model in T3 .82 rear (TS optional) from March 25th will be more then capable of 450whp with excellent response.   
    • The boy crashed his Patrol a while ago, so he is now driving his mum's ASX and she is driving my Honda I initially said he could have the Honda to drive around (he's a good kid currently training at the police academy), but, his mum was quick in saying that he "will" take the ASX and she will take the Honda, he was a bit upset with that, he rates the manual Honda more than the automatic ASX (mums taxi), and I'm getting the feeling she enjoys thrashing the manual Honda around In other news, I'm looking at a MX5 NB series 2 on Saturday  I always loved my NB series 1, but after stripping it down because I'm a idiot it wasn't fun cruising or driving around daily, and Jackie refused to drive it, which was an issue if we went out, because her refusing to drive it meant I lost my designated driver if we went to a party, or dinner, or...... basically anywhere where I could get a glow on Yes yes, I may need a new job if I decide to buy https://www.seek.com.au/apprentice-hairdresser-jobs/in-All-Sydney-NSW Plus giving the Honda to the boy, which is my cunning plan, will give me enough wifey type credits to turn up in another car Meh
    • Yeah I've just been checking it out on GTR registry and its the emerald green pearl (DS0) and only 610 made for S1 RS-Four V (if i'm understanding correctly) so I feel obliged to restore the paint to as close to original as possible!
    • Thankyou, sir! Yeah I'm having a lot of fun rewiring bits of the car. I used to dislike wiring a lot before, I dont like it any more but it is getting easier
