Hey guys,

As most of you know I'm in Tokyo at the moment. Ive been all around Japan 3 years ago but let me say Tokyo is something else. I went to Disney Land yesterday, and D1 Round 7 @ Fuji Speedway on Sunday which was of course my personal highlight, as well as getting to sit in the official Toyota F1 Car in Harajuku. That was amazing seeing an F1 car in the flesh.

Anyways enough chit chat, I thought I'd show you guys SOME pictures from D1 Round 7. I'll upload more as well as videos when I get back next week. But this should give you a taste of what I was lucky enough to experience, although the pictures don't really do it justice.. here they are... oh and the first one is my logo I got tat'd today by www.NS7Dept.com :P

edit: also thanks goes out to SAU sponsor Ben from J-Spec Imports for helping me out and clearing a few things about my future toy next year hopefully. :P

Nice, I was in Japan about 2 weeks back, whats the disneyland like? I went to disney sea lol :)

I made that mistake and got off at Disney Sea but theres a monorail that goes to Disney Land there. Disney Land is remarkable, although childish the work they've put into it blew me away. And its always funny seeing japanese versions of cinderella lol.

This is my fave pic from D1, http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1022...mp;id=501249689 I spent as much time in the parking lot than I did watching the drifting. :D

Also if you see the pic of the white S15 with a shot targetted on the rear wheel, are the WedsSport SA-70 wheels that are arriving for me in a few weeks that I've waiting 4 months for. Seeing them in person confirmed they were worth every penny, and the wait!

Few more days here so I'm off for now.

Matta ne!

hahaha nar he hasn't. :P I was telling him how I spent $600 on a chick at Kabukicho on my first night (Most foreigners will do the same.) who was one of the RLD girls but like fell in love with me and gave me her #. Chick was 30 and looked 22. She thought I was 23 although 19, underage overseas clubbin ftw. :ninja:

Everyone has a gf here it's depressing :ninja: Where are the japanese clubs in Perth I gota see what I can scoop up. lol.

    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
    • Forgot to mention. I love the fact that Greg, Gregged Up, the model of his car, that has so many gregged up stories about its build! I had to have a little laugh. At the same time thinking "That's the sort of thing I'd do to myself!"
    • Not yet, might end up being easter now, didn't end up getting time off over xmas.    I've been seeing some concerning things online now too. Lots of people with issues, could all be setup issues but the consequences in some cases are significant.    All of the below are other peoples stories, not mine and are unverified.  Seen 2 x broken adapter ring that destroyed the gearbox as it failed.   They still do seem to have twin plate rattle despite claims of silent. Several issues with it not holding power but some evidence of constant pressure on plate. Setup issues with bite point.   Lot of people after 2-4 weeks swapping back to another brand.    On the positive side, I've seen a barra put down near 1000hp at the wheels and its held it.  Also everyone seems to confirm the pedal is light.    Does have me a little cautious and looking at ATS carbon clutches again .......        
    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming.
