My partner and I will be in Tokyo at this time and would be keen to attend.

Whats the story with purchasing tickets? Is it ok to get them on the day?

What would be the best way to get to the track? More than happy to chip in if anyone has seats available in a van/car.

Looking forward to it!

You can buy tickets on the day but its 500 yen extra so your looking at 2,500yen each.

You wont be able to get tickets to Grid walk etc as they are only available online from Japan only.

By the way , I'm back in Japan so those guys that I've organised to get tickets I'll be pming you soon !!

Alrighty thanks for that.

No hope of getting the circuit safari/taxi tickets on the day either I am guessing? From the translated english on the website looks like thats a no hope.

Oh well should be a fun day anyway.

Is public transport to the track doable?

yeah PT to fuji is certainly possible. train to gotenba station then bus from there to FISCO. there are direction in english on the fuji speedway website. :P

from memory take the odakyu line from shinjuku. I usually drive but have done the train and bus once years ago. it is a fair hike by train etc but certainly do-able.

Nah mate not a chance of getting circuit safari/taxi or grid walk tickets on the day.

They sell out in a matter of minutes once tickets go on sale online.

Just hire a car..piece os p#ss and get english gps and you'll have no troubles bar the annual traffic jam on the Tomei expressway.

Ok cool.

Staying at Shinjuku so I figure that makes the train pretty easy. Just as long as buses exist on the other end its all good :P

Not too keen on car hire, no where to put the thing when I get back to the hotel and heading off early monday morning.

Looking forward to it anyway!

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
