Mercury hits 39.5 C in Tokyo, all-time record

Tuesday, July 20, 2004 at 16:11 JST

TOKYO — An unprecedented heat wave hit Tokyo on Tuesday morning, with the mercury hitting an all-time high for the capital at 39.5 C shortly before 1 p.m., topping the previous record of 39.1 C recorded Aug. 3, 1994, the Japan Meteorological Agency said.

The new high was logged at 12:58 p.m. from an observation point in central Tokyo's Otemachi business district as temperatures soared in the Kanto-Koshin region in eastern and central Japan while a high-pressure system blanketed the Japanese archipelago, the agency said. (Kyodo News)

I was in Tokyo on holiday from the 17th to the 23rd of July...

Checking my notes, I would have been walking from Shinonome station to Super Autobacs at that time...and I remember it being obscenely hot. Thank you Japan for having vending machines every five metres.:rofl:

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
