Well, at the moment, I'm thinking about doing two years there (Unless I hate it)... rural one year, urban the other. ;)

I think rural would be best first, with visits to the city... I get a bit funny around *really* big crowds, so maybe the country would be best... but there'll be no super-autobacs out there. :P

Excellent descision, thats what I did, and I don't regret anything...

I live 5 minutes away from an autobacs - and can order any part from the autobacs catalogue. Super autobacs is 1 hour away (on the mainland) - but there's no point going (except to enjoy the place) - as I can just order what I want.

we finally got our superautobacs in Yamanashi earlier this year, so I'm now able to spend hours wondering about the store...but even so, as DaiOni said, you can order just about anything anyways...

the only downside to moving from one place to another after a year, is the money you'll waste on things like deposits and key money for apartments...

Speaking of caravans....in over 5 years I've never, ever seen a car towing one. If I head down to the five lakes area near Fuji you'll see a couple of cars towing boats, but in general most people don't have tow bars and don't often tow anything...

and I thought you disliked super AB :cheers:

Do they have caravan parks in Japan?

I'd chain my 34 next to it ;)

T.

yes there are caravans and there are caravan parks...just not that many when you can pretty much stay anywhere within a reasonable price when traveling around the country side.

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
