thinking about a couple of places at the mo. maybe try the Tokyo Inn in Chibaminato, or the New Otani in Makuhari. Next week I'll be staying at the Mitsui Gardens in Chiba so if it's any good I may stay there for TAS too.

Guys I have been told to take the first 3 weeks off in jan from work and thinking about going over but a bit hesident as I would be going by myself. I want to go to TAS but have no clue about the place how to get there and really would like to tag along with others if possible. I think atm I can only afford about 10 days as I would only have about 5K to spend on the trip but help is really needed as I haven't had a holiday for about 5 years and need help.

I bought my ticket a couple of months ago. It will also be my first business trip for a new business I just started. A mixture of excited and scared is how I'm feeling right now. :( But really looking forward to the trip, and also meeting some of you guys.

I will actually be in Tokyo for the show from the 10th (visiting the show every day from the 12th to 14th) and then heading back on the 18th. Would love to meet up with some of you guys if you are up for it.

RaceBorn (Amir) :)

It's actually super easy to get there (provided you're flying in to Narita airport). You can take a Keisei Skyliner or slower train from Narita airport to Keisei-Tsudanuma--it's about 20-40 minutes away depending on the train. You then switch lines one time for "Chiba City" and get off at the first stop--Makuhari Hongo Stn. After that, you catch a bus for Makuhari Messe.

If you guys have any questions about the area, I'll try to answer them as best as possible.

Put me down as 100% definite guys. I am staying within walking distance of Roppongi and near Aoyama 1-chome station. Look forward to meeting and catching up with you guys :thumbsup:

So where is Justin? Still moving.

TAS getting close.

I'm here mate... just a little tied up at the moment with moving stuff. I sadi I would be there by beginning of November, but thats now looking like beginning of January! So I hope I can be there a few days before TAS kicks off.

Just a few questions to some people:

Mr Keets: Whats your first name bud? I need to add you to the list.

RaceBorn: Good stuff, will see you there...

Nick/Richard: Have you blokes organised passes for the Friday yet? I'm still keen, I'm just not 100% sure if I can get over there for the Friday yet so... just bear with me, I'll let you know asap.

Im not going to make it Justin :ninja: I cant get as much time off as I would like at the moment so I have to take a raincheck on TAS however I will be over early-mid 2007.

mr keets (Keith) is not coming now.

and nick has confirmed with me that he truly does like boys more than girls so he's not coming either.

me on the other hand? I plan to rock out with ma cock out. (figuratively speaking of course).

Justin, I will bring/organise a pass for you no problem. just pm me your full name.

let's hook up on the friday for sure. I'm planning to take lots of photos. Got myself a Canon 400D so this time i may even have some decent ones!

can't wait! :ninja:

Im not going to make it Justin :sick: I cant get as much time off as I would like at the moment so I have to take a raincheck on TAS however I will be over early-mid 2007.

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!! That is a serious letdown, but will be good to catch up later on.

I'll be cashing that raincheck mate don't you worry... :)

No worries Poida, I added you to the list.

Btw, to the people who are attending, who's going to meet up afterwards? And at what time? I was thinking 6pm out front of the main entrance, but if anyone has a better plan (Richard?) then let's hear it. I'm not familiar with any decent Izakayas or bar around there, so if anyone has a place that they can recommend let me know.

hmm, that plan sounds good. I dont know many izakaya in makuhari (well any), but I do know of 1 particular place in chiba that is good. and they have some very nice waitresses too.

    • I ❤️ Matty I would like to thank Matty for going out his way in securing me a OEM NC detachable hard top for the NC Matty, your worth your weight in gold, and I cannot say how much I really appreciate your outstanding help I'll get it colour matched once I pick it up sometime in Dec-Jan 😁  
    • We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning. 
    • Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.
    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
