I think you're referring to the Wangan highway... C1 ?

Smokey aka Nagata from Top Secret are often referred to as this mysterious 'Midnight Club' in DVD's about the Japan car scene, however pick up any recent option volume and you can see it's not limited to any 'club' as of such.

Or mid-night battles...Kansai has about 10 known to the public/magazines and probably the most popular illegal street circuits spanning from Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe and Nara...because of how close these cities are all clustered together...highways all interconnecting...compared to other cities such as Tokyo.

I said 10 because there are another 15-20 I heard and you need to know someone to know where to meet up for them...but this was back in 2000. There are probably a few more new ones now or less depending if the cops have clamped down on them.

What's always intresting is seeing cars from the West - Hiroshima and North - Gifu here in Osaka during the weekends. Always causing more trouble than a friendly battle...as they don't know the local rules!

My mate Kouta (soon to be on a 3 month study program in Perth) knows where the Tsuruhashi/Nara racers meet coz thats how he smashed his car - midnight racing! ... all Civics, Roadsters and Integras though...

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      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?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
