I can't seem to FTP all my pictures from the Hotel here at Motegi, so I'll just attach a few for now.

Go JDM Cowboy, now with 100% more JDM!!!

The Motegi Super Street Challenge that was going on this weekend was just a drag race, with about 60%-70% American muscle cars :lol: I was hoping it'd be a tuner shootout or perhaps a lot of riced out cars, but oh well. Got a few cool pics from that too.

Indy is coming back for the first time in a few years, so there is a lot of Indy stuff here at the moment. Also, there is a huge sale on 05 BAR Honda stuff, but very little 06 Honda F1 Racing stuff.

Asimo is pretty cool. I took some videos of him running around, and hopefully I can get those up soon too.

Aarons having a siezure out here with all the dope wagons and stuff. His picture thread should be awesome street cars.

Oh, and if anyone wants some '05 BAR Honda stuff, let me know. Its crazy cheap right now.

HI YA!

So Aaron's there with you! Where are all the hooker pics in the hotel room?

I don't have my laptop here, and I'm up at about 300 pics so far...............and we haven't been to Tokyo yet ;)

Rest assured, I've got some good ones coming, and I'm going absolutely batshit insane out here :D

Nick would like me to inform everyone that bidets on their hardest setting feel "invigorating."

Wish you were here, or something ;)

way to go. Take it all in!

seccs around the world!

Damn, We should have made a run of $7 SECCS T-Shirts or something you could hand out to people with cool cars. Scott's last design would have worked... I would have chipped in.

We need the JDM parts hook up Yo... Find a Subaru/Mitsubishi junk yard that will ship to the US, or a mechanic that would be willing to find us parts...

I can't beleive you went to Japan to watch American muscle cars drag race... That is so wrong... I like it.

Awesome! When did you arrive in Japan??? How long are you staying there and where are you going!?

Arrived last wednesday, went to Utsunomiya and Nasoshiobarashi to visit a friend. Then two days in Motegi, and today we are heading to Tokyo. Unfortunately, we leave on this Wednesday. Its way to short of a trip, but its been lots of fun.

You have a tour guide while in Tokyo? What are you looking to do there? May I suggest Shibuya and Roppongi Hills.

I'm wishing for a hookup who can get me the RS Watanabe Cyclone wheels....

Nick & Aaron, enjoy the rest of your trip. Hate to say it, but I'm jealous - would love to get back to Nippon sometime.

We've pretty much only got one day in Tokyo, and so far the destinations are Odaibi and Super Autobacs.

lucky bastards...

Enjoy the trip guys! I'm terribly jealous!

:lol:

You've probably already left... or are there right now, but Odaiba is cool, but go at night! There are stores and the Fuji TV station during the day, but none of those are comparable to the views at night - make sure to take the JR line that goes on Rainbow Bridge. Super Autobacs? Thats a store right? Its just like a Kragen accept for it sells Defi gauges instead of Autometer :p. If you read this before you head out, start your day off on the Yamanote Line. Its the green line. It doesn't matter in what direction you get on, its just a just a huge circle around Tokyo. You can stop at Harajuku, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ebisu(if you're going to Roppongi) and many other places. Trust me, you'll want to see these places before you leave.

Have fun and take more pics!

Yeah, pretty much :lol: but it's considered the holy land by one of the guys I'm traveling with :lol:

Only a few hours, and doesn't look to far from the hotel.

Its OK I guess... I bought some light tint thing from there and it didn't work. It just sells some cool stuff from HKS and stuff... like a mini...mini summit. Nothing you cant get here.

Yeah. Its got a lot of cool stuff, but not really that cheap or really rare, but still kinda neat.

I saw both of those while I was at autobacs. :P

... and I think I just ruined the thread. Can someone resize them for me :) I'm at school :p

It would suck to have that Sylvia and get a rock in the windshield spray bottle and not be able to clean your glass!

(yes, that's the best I got for bustin on that sick car... I got nuthin.)

If a rock hit that car, anywhere, to where it would break the fluid reserve, it would suck.
