Can someone recomend where to go for digital cameras??? are they cheap in Japan??

I would like to try and find myself a digital SLR with a nice lens..... Akihibara (spellig??) maybe???

I picked up a new Sony 4.0 Meg Digi Cam- i forget the model but it was one down from the Sony T1, with the rotating lense.

We paid $435 AUD once converted from Arkihabara - retail for the same unit back in Australia was around $1000

Brad: will do, the hotel we stayed at was very well placed and quite central to most of the car shops we wanted to check out.

We had Up Garage Chiba 5 mins walk from the hotel, Crystal only a few stops away via Monorail, and Top Secret a short cab ride or a hefty walk from Crystal, practically on the same road.

Rezz, come to Sydney for the weekend - you know you want to.
Bloody hell, I wish I could!!! Next time Nick...

I kinda stuffed up the SAUWA cruise last Sunday (had to meet family instead), and the meet up I organised at a beer factory in Fremantle wasn't the best turn out... but I did get to meet uneekwahn (Jason), GTRKen (Ken) and Nizmo (Lauren), so the Japanese girls and I had a good time.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
