The Omori factory?

Omorikaigan station on the Keikyu line, which goes through Shinagawa.

Head out of the station and go North East. It's across the road from the horse race course.

Yeah pretty much this exactly.

Take Yamanote line to Shinagawa. Switch to/follow the signs to the Keikyu line, buy a ticket at the window to Omorikaigan station I think its 160yen from Shinagawa.

Its the first platform you see when you go thru the ticket gates. Wait for a local train. If you accidently get the express it takes you 4 stops past Omorikaigan and you have to get off and backtrack. Done this when in a hurry before its a royal pain in the ass.

Get off the train at Omorikaigan, go outside the station and take the pedestrian footbridge to the other side of the road. Go down to your left and walk for 5-10 minutes till you hit Nismo.

Cross your fingers that they bothered to open up the shop today because half the times i've gone they've been closed for random reasons.

Easiest place to get to tho.

Nismo Omori Factory is most definately a must see when visiting Tokyo :(

Excercise self control while in the shop otherwise you will walk out with a big bag of random Nismo parts and accessories that you didn't plan to buy ;)

I'll be staying in the Sunshine City Prince Hotel located in Ikebukuro.

Can anyone direct me on how to get to the NISMO/OMORI factory and is it open from the 9th to the 14th April 2007?

I think everything you need to answer your own question is in this thread. Maybe have a read? ^^^^^^^^^

HaHaHa yeah, we went the four extra stops too!! went back too far and went to check out Nissan Red Stage... which turned out to be a dealership. They had a parts shop with nismo gear too tho.

Loved the race cars in the front of Omori Factory tho, and super clean workshop.

You can see the NISMO sign from the train (on the left as you head out).... you'll love it!

Directions above are spot on.

Its a Garage cum showroom, The office building behind is the HQ for Nismo Japan.

The security for the hq is very strict. Their inhouse garage is located on the 3rd or 4th floor....

Lots of secret projects as well as the latest development models stowed there.. When i last visited on business, I was shown the last ever R34 Z Tune D1 S15 Street legal project and 2006 JGTC car.

What is at the Omori Factory? Is it a garage? Or just a Nismo Store... can anyone go there?

from Shinagawa, make sure you get the local train which has black Kanji on the side of the train. or the blue writeing (express)which if you get it, you will have to get off atTachiagawa and wait for the local train. train runs parralall to the main road Daiichikahen.

Sorry i lived near there for 10 years and only went there once

Sorry for the late reply (been super busy lately), but big thanks to all for the info

just an update - was there last week they are open on fridays from 1pm to 4pm and sat and sunday from i think it was 10am? through to 4ish. I went there on friday at like mid day had to drive around for an hour in lunch time traffic to burn off some time - not fun lol. But worth the visit. lot smaller than I expected but the R34 Xanavi made it worthwhile (and i bought a crap load of stuff at the shop)

We were lucky enough to see a R34 Z tune there (customer's car) we spoke to the nissan guy there he said that for a premium cost you can have your R34 converted to Z tune level. Damn the Z tunes look nice though, nothing makes it look excessive...just dangerous hehe

    • That's the most absurd thing I've ever heard. I would go cut bellhousing over that monstrosity of a flywheel all day, every day. It puts a lot more mass further from the last main bearing. I've had nothing but problems with Collins in the past and refuse to ever buy their products again. I would not trust anything they tell you. He's playing his salesman card.  I'm currently at 640whp on a mustang dyno (~770bhp) with the intentions of running E85 and a lot more power this upcoming spring. Cheers, 
    • Nah, it's not the reduced knock margin. It is a direct mechanical effect of having to initiate the combustion earlier, while the piston is still rising, which starts to exert combustion pressure on the rising piston earlier, making the rest of the engine work harder to finish driving the piston up to TDC where the combustion pressure stops being a negative and starts being a positive. Your modern engine that only needs ~10° to make MBT doesn't waste the other 10 or so degrees of crank rotation. That's almost all of it. The difference in knock margin might go either way. Remember that modern engines to which you are currently comparing the long tractor engine (the RB) are now running super high compression, direct injection, tricky cam control and maybe even cylinder pressure sensors. You're not comparing apples with other fruit. It's apples and sea weed, or some other evolutionarily primitive vegetation. And remember, squish only really comes into play at the very end of the stroke. It certainly does good things, but it is not the biggest contributor to what's going on. It is quite possibly much less important in 4 valve head than 2 valvers also, because there is so much less squish available to a 4 valve anyway.
    • Food for thought, a longer stroke motor would need less ignition timing vs. a shorter stroke motor requiring more ignition timing.
    • Thanks Duncan, HART is only 10 mins from me (I did my bike license there), it'd be awesome if it ran these types of things.  Sutton Road does look good and they take fewer cars than SMSP which is good.  Surely you have enough land to lay a few million tonnes of concrete and some sprinklers D? 
    • I thought an engine that needs more ignition timing to make power is going to result in less power due to reduced knock margin? More time for the combustion to propagate -> more time for it to heat up the rest of the mix to detonation.
