Nismo Festival 2013

[Irishnismo]

Hi members,

I'm looking for information on the nismo festival. I know that it was cancelled last year. Does anyone know the dates it's on this year or is it still on??

On the Japan topic to go to the festival, I would be flying from Perth to Tokyo. I would like a bit of guidance maybe on accomadation, travel and maybe the possibility of renting a gtr to drive over there???

Thanks

they said at the 11' event they would shelve it for two years due to moving nismo to yokohama. so should be on this year! but with all the shit that went down in japan last year i wouldnt count on it.

I reckon they will announce the Dates around March, I think that is when they announced in 2011, I too am eager to know the dates.

Yep me too, I'm going 100% with a few guys form here. We were going to head over last year but obviously it didn't go on. From what I read it was only a 1 year break and the move is now complete.

The new factory is looking the goods

Hopefully it is going ahead; I'll definitely be making an effort to attend.

[Irishnismo]

Thanks for the input. I just want to be able to plan it in time. Fingers crossed it goes ahead.

Any dates for this yet?

Damn I was just at the new Nismo Omori factory a few days ago and forgot to ask!!

[Adzmax]

Not long now I reckon!

[d0p3y]

They're really keeping us hanging!

[Aggroman]

god damn they are taking their sweet ass time or im just shit and cant find it!

[Adzmax]

Yeah, still no updates.

Looks like that new Nismo (Yokohama) Omori Factory is much larger than the other one.

I have even greater exceptions from them now to roll out some more special models

Any updates? Trying to plan a Japan trip but can't seem to find out when the nismo festival is on

[Adzmax]

Yeah same.

I reckon if there is no info out by end of this month - mid August at the latest then you can pretty much say it ain't happening.

I check the Nismo Japanese blog quite and there hasn't been boo said about it as yet.

An alternative and in my opinion way better event is the annual GTR Magazines "R"'s Festival which happens at Fuji Speedway every September.

It's way more laid back event with loads of Top Tuners bringing out there cars plus the average Tanaka and Watanabes cars.

Easy access to pit area to view cars, talk to tuners blah blah blah. Honestly way better than Nismo if you want to go to Japan to rare and tuned cars.

The car park can easily chew up a big amount of the day having a gawk.

Well worth checking out.

[Adzmax]

Wonder why it wouldn't happen

Money.
