when i was in japan i stayed at business hotels. these are small, comfortable and very well maintained rooms for japanese business men. Stayed mainly at Toyoko Inn (or something like that). they have free internet, and alcoholic vending machines in the lobby 24hrs and are very reasonably priced.

My advice is to get a japanese rail pass. they are worth more than your passport (well nearly :() and allow you to travel basically anywhere in japan by rail. (including the bullet train).

get pissed where? :bonk:  

isn't the legal drinking age in Japan 20yo :D  

but you'll be right  heaps of vending machines around and they hardly check gaijin's ID at clubs ;)

ahhh shit.. some one told me they had the same laws as they do here in Aus..

Oh well thats it.. there go my chances of picking up any one.. :pissed: :bonk: lol

Actually wait.. Does that mean that when chicks/guys turn 20 over there they act like silly 18 year olds..? Or just more mature 18 year olds..? :nowigetit

Hey guys, i'm new to this forum. Although i don't drive a Skyline, i drive a Soarer TT.. i know i know, what the hell is a soarer doing on a skyline forum.. .hehehe, i find this thread very useful and you guys seem like a friendly bunch.

Look i'm going over to Japan to teach with Nova in April and honestly this forum is the only one which really has lots of info about japan. The pros and the cons.

I have been reading this forum for a while now and decided to might as well join up. so i look forward to more news from you guys and other things that are happening over there in Japland...

I heard that Japan passed legislation recently that Mines_Datsun was is not allowed to enter Japan in fear of him making up stories of crashing a GTR into a bus stop in Japan!!!!

So unfortunately you will have to stay in Australia :usuck:

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
