Need directions to shops in Chiba... PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE


Recommended Posts

If anyone can provide me with detailed directions to shops in the Chiba are, I'd be eternally grateful! :headspin:

Tomorrow is my last day in Japan and I would like to go to Chiba to visit some shops, upgarage at the least. I will be departing from the Tokyo Station and heading out to Chiba. Also, I've got from about noon til closing to visit these shops.

Can anyone help?

Plucking a few places from my notes

UpGarage

Get the JR out to Chiba (airport line) or Chiba Minato .From here either catch the monorail or simply walk along underneath following where it goes. Once you get to the stop one from Chiba Minato station alight from the monorail and head north up R16. There is a Red stage Nissan dealer on the right and a couple of petrol stations on the left, Up garage is just after these on the left hand side

Crystal

The other option is to head into Chiba and take the monorail from there. Alight at the Sports Stadium, head down the escalators to your left (away from the stadium) then head north (turn right at the bottom of the escalators) up the R16. Crystal is 10-15mins walk on the left hand side of the road. Look for the McDonalds Golden Arches, and you should be able to see Crystal just after. See map for Super Autobacs Naganuma

Top secret

45min walk up R16 from Crystal (there is a bus service running). Alternatively if you are coming from Katsutadai station on the Kansai line you can catch a bus from there. It's just on a side street but heading west from R16 however is pretty easy to spot (particularly if you're coming from the south). There will be a heap of modified cars, mostly GTR's, out front and if you go around the right hand side of the building past the multitude of shop cars there is a small office.

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
