Japan residents post up pics of your 'line! ... or sundry vehicle ;)


Recommended Posts

I took these pics this morning... I was very impressed with the work done by JAM Body Service (I'll post up what I had done in the Photo Diary) and was wondering, could the Japan residents post up pics of their cars?

(if it ain't got a Jap number plate, don't post it! :D)

...mine...

Is that a Porsche turbo badge, rezz? :D
heh-hahaha! badteeth.gif You noticed...

... I'm not responsible for that, I've since tried to pry said badge off to no avail...

Why is it that most Japanese cars have extremely dark tint on the back windows and rear screen but light in the front? The cima which i imported is like this as well.

it's illegal to have dark tints on the front windscreen or the front windows. AFAIK there are no restrictions on the rear windows, so most cars come with dark tints from the factory.

Paint is real smick...picked her up with Justin on Saturday night.

on Mt Rokko before typhoon 16 arrived..

wow love that picture, nice lighting, like ur evo too, so clean. here's a pic of my bnr32 and my friends bnr32 with, look at that company, familiar? hehe

With the addition of another son to my family, I was tempted to sell the Skyline and get a Stagea. After much deliberation, I opted to keep the car and get a modded Accord Wagon as a family car...

Dave, love that shape accord mate...good choice.

also your plates look a little dirty on the skyline.

Yukio, thanks mate your GT-R looks smick with those nice wheels...LOL about the shop :mad:

Justin has Kobe plates, the only plates people want over here :)

Amaru, thanks :)

Thanks...the wheels were an absolute bargain from Upgarage, though ideally I would have liked white/silver LM-GT4's or maybe TE-37's...

The Accord is running on 17inch Rays Versus and a complete Tein suspension kit - and despite being very low the ride is surprisingly smooth.

You all have such sweet sweet cars! what's it cost to get one of these and keep it running/yr? I'm looking at moving to Japan a short while after I finish my Engineering Degree at uni - and of course I'd be interested in picking up a nice car (R34 GT-R/Evo VI-VIII/S15/etc)... so long as I can afford everything else :mad:

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
