Would anyone mind two more people tagging along? My brother and I will be vacationing in Japan in January and one of the highlights of our trip will be going to the TAS. We will be leaving from California U.S. and will be in Japan Jan. 11-19.

We're planning on staying at the Shiba Hotel (same as CircusMonkey :()

Since this is our first trip out there, we plan on doing a bunch of toursit stuff, so we shouldn't be much of a bother to you guys.

Hey, I will be going too with my gf and another of my mate with some of his friends from Singapore. Think I stated in another thread but I'm being missed out in this thread!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arrival Narita 13th Jan, Departure 17th Jan

Still awaiting confirmation for hotel room at Shinjuku Vintage (AU$110). Anyone has better recommendations on pricing and the proximity nearest to Shinjuku?

Will be visiting TAS on the Sat for a day only due to tight schedule as I'm doing some usual tourist rounds.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Will be super duper grateful if anyone can let me in on the garages and workshops visit list and also the itinerary for Sat.

Cheers

Hey Blitz,

I will be staying at the hotel (new T) on the 14th, we fly out the next day so Friday is the only day I can have a look around. What are you guys up to on Fri??

Ken

Hi Ken,

Nick (blitz) and I are travelling to Japan together. I don't know yet what Nick has planned for us yet on the friday, but I'm sure we could meet up at some point. See you there.

Richard

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
