As the topic suggests the aim of this thread is to compile a list of tuning shops, directions on how to get there and opening times etc..

It seems to be a commonly asked question in the Japan section, so please guys no chit chat, lets compile a good helpful list for those heading over on holidays...

Thanks, M.

I'll start with the Nismo factory (OMORI) as stated in another thread...

1. IN SHORT..... 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.

www.nismo.co.jp

2. MORE DETAIL.....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.

Nismo Omori Factory has yet again changed its opening schedule.

Now open only Fri/Sat/Sundays

Please feel free to add further directions...

VEILSIDE...

Compiled from other threads also thanks...

showroom open 10 - 6 not wednesday

Take the new Tsukuba Express from Akihabara. Get off at Midorino station (43 min from Akiba) and you can either walk to Veilside 10-15 min down the main road, or take a taxi for 2-3 min

found a map but not real helpful sorry... http://www.veilsidejpn.com/profile/map.html

I dont know how helpful this is, but near where i live there is a bit of a car workshop/yard district thing going, spanning the distance between 3 stations.

Where - Between Urayasu and Gyotoku stations on Tozai line. Get off at Urayasu and when u exit the station gates continue the vague direction of straight for 10metres and you will get the the main road that has the tracks go over head. Turn right and its this main road where the action is. unfortunately it speads out for a number of Kms, so either bring a bike or get ready for a big walk.

Whats there? - King buyer, another car yard specializing in tuned cars, a smaller workshop usually with somthing hard in it (RX7, Skylines etc), theres a place sellling slightly stange, mostly dressy versions of a few cars, a VIP type place, further down the road there is a proper modified car workshop (around gyotoku area by now) and much much further down the street is one more selling near standard sports cars. And many normal car shops in between this.

keep in mind this main street doesnt follow the tracks, but funs kinds parallel to it. if your unsure just ask which road has allt he car shops on it.

enjoy
