Leaving for Tokyo tomorrow morning - anything I should pick up?

tonybui · 05-14-2013, 02:20 PM

Are you there for business or pleasure? I always wanted to go to Japan... So jealous man !!

dmhenderson · 05-14-2013, 02:21 PM

Business unfortunately but I am getting out to do things after work.

So this shop is pretty damn cool:

¥Õ¥§¥¢¥ì¥Ç¥££Ú

JDM nismo carbon fiber b pillars and rearview mirrors? Pretty cool.

They also have some pretty cool front/rear emblem alternatives (high gloss) if you don't like EVO-R.

GaleForce · 05-15-2013, 05:41 AM

I'm interested in the gauge cluster. Would be cool if I could convert mine to KPH.

Vicster · 05-15-2013, 07:44 AM

I do like those b pillars... pretty hot with that Nismo on em.

Guys

guys

oh god

dmhenderson · 05-15-2013, 07:51 AM

Guys it turns out one of my japanese counterparts is a member of Z Project Tokyo. We spent out entire dinner acting like dumbass kids and swapping car pictures. His boss thought it was hilarious.

I just bought:
Nismo Carbon B Pillars and a 2014 Nismo emblem for less than $300 total.

He has a heavily modded monterey blue 2010 sport running Top Secret stuff with a custom straight pipe exhaust (like the one frank was talking about last weekend). Pics to follow some of which are very funny for reasons I don't want to tell you just yet because it would ruin it.

Who owns MAZOC? Any interest in a sister car club that can get us JDM parts on the cheap?

dmhenderson · 05-15-2013, 08:43 AM

He did his whole dash in carbon. Has JDM rays with crazy blue wheel hubs. Lots of very cool stuff on his ride. The exhaust is nuts. I laughed because it's exactly what Frank described wanting Khoi to build for his future GT-R.

birdmanx1 · 05-15-2013, 08:52 AM

Pics & videos would go a long way.

dmhenderson · 05-15-2013, 08:54 AM

Coming. He had them on his phone at the Skyline restaurant this evening and I emailed him the moment I got back to my room. I asked for closeups of his wheels, exhaust, engine bay, dash/interior and the top secret front lip.

dmhenderson · 05-15-2013, 08:55 AM

He has a persimmon interior (???) which I didn't think was offered with the blue car but whatever. He also has a zcarzero persimmon shifter that matches his interior. Good looking ride. Rolled fenders, dropped on some crazy orange coils I have never seen before with next to no wheel gap.

Oh hey so this looks like Final Fantasy or something.

Madness.

Looks like the Death Star. 51 floors up. Skyline restaurant.

I'm not the only tourist. That's our dinner table.

The sardine was horrid. Everything else owned.
