Its a bit late but ryuujin skyline and ikoma skyline are amazing roads. ryuujin can get a bit crowded on weekends with gangs of touring motorbikes but late afternoon/early evening is good. Ikoma skyline is a toll road (1200yen) so theres rarely any traffic.

i thought it was always like that

I got my aus license transferred a few years back. no real dramas but i did spend the whole day at the licensing centre. I didnt have transcripts of my driving history so had to go over everything from my driving past. Who taught me, how many lessons, what kind of lessons, what the test was like. one of the chicks at the centre spoke english though so it was too easy. Anyway, just grab a working holiday visa and come over here for a few months.whats the worst that could happen?

Looks like someone took to this thing with a baseball bat. Its leaking oil and the engine wont start, needs repair

Looks really good. Did it help at all with temperatures?

what are the advantages / disadvantages of running more duration on the exhaust cam?

post the pics that came with the instructions

Had a quick look at the central 20 website link. It looks like they are a fairlady tuning house. The computer is offered for sale separately or with cams, manifolds, mufflers so I guess theres not much chance of finding out what version your is unless you chuck it on a dyno

The new type-r that just came out here is gonna be something special.it laps suzuka circuit 5 seconds faster than an R-34 GTR Link

youve got a PM

warm it up properly then thrash it

Bar Isn't It Sam & Dave On thursday i reckon bar isnt it will be your best bet. Friday for Sam and Dave. Both of them are really close to your hotel so shouldnt be too hard to find. But I'd recommend going here first for a great burger and asking them what clubs to check out. Theyll be able to give you directions.

Theres SFA in the way of clubs in Shin Osaka. Theres heaps in umeda and nanba. What kind of club were you thinking aboot?

should we all reupload our pics?

I want to cut a hole in my standard bonnet and place this scoop in backwards, flush with the bonnet so it acts as a vent. would it be possible to fibreglass the vent in place from underneath? Is there an easier way to do it? cheers

If youre in Osaka theres a gokart track down the back of USJ

article Very sad but you have to wonder why they were crossing the course in front of a car. its not like they wouldnt have heard it coming

Just saw this this arvo on the way home from Mt Koya

saw this on my way home from work on Friday. why???? RE Amemiya festival last year at Super Autobacs Sign at a karaoke place mmmmmmm GT wing

The one I usually go to is called rokko. Its a chain shop so let me know where you are staying and ill find out which one is closest to you. If you just get all you can eat there is no time limit but if you get all you can drink too then theres a 2 hour time limit. Last order after 1 hour and a half. Theres draft beer or various cocktails, chuhais, whiskeys but all very watered down.the draft is your best bet

If you are coming to osaka i know a few good places for around 2000 all you can eat yakiniku and another 1200 on top of that for all you can drink. its not top shelf stuff but its not stuff they pulled out of the bins out the back either

how long does it take to get there from osaka?

no worries. just checked the D1 website and theres no round in july unfortunately. I havent been to one yet but im going to the suzuka round at the end of next month. Im in osaka so suzuka is pretty much the only one i can easily get to

here in osaka im yet to find a smooth road.even on the expressways there expansion joints every coupla hundred metres.

access map is here its about a 2 hour shinkansen ride from tokyo to sendai
