Veilside is out towards Tsukuba City/Ibaraki Prefecture 15min with taxi from city center.

Quite an amazing place with a italian resturant inside.

I should post some more pics later from Veilside with more close ups of the R32/34.

A question for you Rezz or other on the board.I`ve read and heard from guidebooks and people say that Osaka is much like Tokyo ,but without the hype/(Osaka down to earth).

Is that the truth? :D

Well... the first thing I noticed about Tokyo was that it had WAY more money spent on infrastructure during the bubble economy years... and along with that the government is there, National headquarters are there etc so it's like Tokyo is *it* as far as most people are concerned. Over here in Osaka though... it's a little smaller than Tokyo, I guess it feels like it's more 'Japanese style' big city, whereas Tokyo is more 'international style' big city. Having said that, I've heard alot over the years that fashion trends actually start in Osaka... then the so called 'best' of those fashion trends make there way over to Tokyo Ginza whatever. But yeah, Osaka is more 'down to earth' and 'rough' I guess...

awsome pics.....but where are the promo girls:D:D

on my trip to japan, i pretty much thing the same as rezz does about tokyo and osaka. tokyo is definitly an international city, too many local/tourist foreigners lol. osaka's my choice as the people there are definitly more "down to earth". that said id go back to tokyo again for sure. would have liked to have visited kobe, maybe next time:D

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together
