The Nigerians were a pain in the ass when i was there a few weeks ago.

"No i'm not going into your bar, I'm getting some dinner."

"We have chips and burgers upstairs. And drinks. And more."

"No. Me and my girlfriend want actual food from an actual restaurant."

"First drink free for the lady."

Yeah they are pricks and they can pick a newbie to Japan a mile away.

You just have to speak to them in Japanese and tell them to f#@k off !!

Big thing at the moment on tourists is credit card scamming. ( http://japantoday.com/category/crime/view/...ise-in-roppongi )

Best thing is to always pay in cash.

You'll be surprised where you'll get into with a wad full of brownies (¥10,000 )

I prefer doing my dirty work in Nagoya in Sakai area..One side you have the exxy Japanese bars and hostess clubs etc and the other is a smorgasbord of Brazillian,Phillipine,Russian, and other very dodgy dodgy bars..just so much fun !!

I caught the Airport Limousine Bus... probably the more expensive and time consuming method but it drops you right to your hotel (pending your staying at a major Tokyo hotel)

$3,000 yen from memory p/p. Very comfortable.

Otherwise the trip was fkn awesome. only doing 5 nights was not exactly a mistake but it made the trip more intense... ie. arriving home was the relaxing part of the holiday :whistling: Disney land was pure amazing...

Akihabara was a total disappointment... maybe at night time it might be better (ie. more interesting) but we went midday/early arvo and it was just a crap load of shops trying to offload old crappy PC equipment, Few little stores with overpriced toys, camera stores run by some egyptian bloke with len's double what you would pay here in Aus.

If anyone is into Models or die-cast cars there was a shop that went over 2 levels chock full of them... inc. trains, BB guns (wish I coulda brought some home)

I'm pretty sure me and my mates went into a 3 level adult shop in Akihabara... Weird shit, posters of chicks shitting on people. They wouldn't let one of our lady friends up to the 3rd level either-- men only

Yeah Akihabara is fast becoming full of sex shops.... Sex sells..

Theres some crazt shit in some of those shops.

Theres a 5 storey one that strts pretty mellow on the 1st floor and by the 5th its pretty full on and some real f#$king weird crew hanging around.

Some of the sex dolls are too bloody real life especially after a good nomihodai or 2

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
