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.

    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
