Finally, here are just a few tempters that give you guys an idea of the calibre of cars on show in and around Japan.

Beer Baron and I returned from Japan this morning after 2 weeks of soaking up the mecca of performance cars

Lets get things started:

We visted the Nismo Omori factory where we were treated to a private photo session involving both the sought after Z-Tune R34 GTR, and the R1 Spec R33 GTR - If these pictures dont excite you, you dont deserve a Skyline!

Need a new RB26? Omori can assist you for a modest fee!

Tokyo Autosalon proved to be a smaller show that previous years, but there was still a plentiful display of eye candy (and some nice cars too!)

Im not sure, but apparently there were promo girls in attendance?

Trust / Greddy had some great high mount kits on display

22's - The must have accessory for your BMW

One of our UK comrades from the GTR UK forums owned this incredible full Carbon fibre body R34 GTR that was just finished by Sunline Racing in time for Tokyo Autosalon. In fact the owner told me that Autosalon was the first time he had seen the car, since handing over a stockish white coloured BNR34 to the guys at Sunline with the instructions to make it a monster.

The car is running a built NUR spec RB26 with Trust T517Z turbines

    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
