All of these have been covered before many times in these threads. Do a search.

Regarding Prince and what it has written on their website, its about 2 hours and 20 minutes from Shinjuku (Tokyo) on the Chuo HonSen line to Okadani then, from there 5 minutes by taxi.

Use http://www.jorudan.co.jp/english/norikae/ to help you plan your train trip.

Looks like the train from Shinjuku leaves only once, on the hour ever hour and is 6500yen one way. The train is called the "Azusa"

Regarding Top Secret's home base in Chiba...

This thing is pretty tough to get to if you don't have a car. It's located near Owada (Yachiyo city) just off Route 16 near a bunch of used car dealerships and fairly non-descript chain restaurants/businesses. I must've passed by this place a good ten times before and never realized it was there until last week, so it's not as "hard to miss" as some other people have noted. However, the shop can be seen from the street if you're heading northbound on RT 16 (towards Funabashi). I live Katsutadai, which is listed as being the closest station to there but I believe it's still quite far away. A solid 20 minute bike ride or a good 40 mins to an hour on foot. A taxi might be the best, but most expensive, way to get there, although I'd like to find out if there really is a bus that gets there too.

BTW- There's also an Upgarage and a used car dealership that specializes in tuned RX7s only about a km or two away.

yes, going nth on RT16 you can see it from the road, but only if you are looking out for it. if you were coming from funabashi then you'd miss it for sure as it would be conceiled behind the service station.

the easiest way to get to TS if you haven't been before and don't have a car is get mono-rail from chiba station and get off at sports centre monorail station, then get a cab heading north and keep an eye out for it so you can tell the cabbie when to stop. I have tried to get a bus out that way before but it was a bit of a mission and didn't work out so well. taxi will still be $20 or $30.
