The drive to the \airport was fun...with a Mirage...thanks Chris, and once at the airport, \i cracked a JDM beer to set the trip of right....then another one...heehe....got on the plane...and got ready for a 13 hour flight to Tokyo...and in total \i had another 6-7 JDM beers...couldn`t sleep due to everyone had crying babies on the flight...and they cried the whole flight...God I wanted to go slap them so bad....then tape their mouths up and beat up their parents for bringing them...but I didn`t. \anyways...landed in \tokyo, then headed off to Osaka, on another flight....and got there a little late...but a cute JDM honey was waiting for me at the gate...WOW...my wife was hot...I didn,t even recognize her....she was....happy.
 \anyways..we jumped on a bus and headed to Nara...and got there, and her mom was waiting for us, so we were hungry and headed to go find something to eat...so we ended up at an Izakaiya....and IT WAS AWESOME...sashimi, steak cubes, yakitory, we had almost everything on the mmenu....and \i had another 3 beers....hehe... Then when we got to her house via a taxi...I had another beer, and I started counting all the wheels I had at the house....everything came except the Sharaks...which the guy said he would take the tires off and then ship them...but being surrounded by all the JDM rims was cool....and I cant wait till they are at my garage for cleaning and reworks....they will be hot...and I got to say...The Work E-wings are HOOOOOOOT  and I got a good buy on both sets....Plus the Mugens are hotter....and so clean....  No car pics yet....it was late...and I was too tired to go hunting for freaky JDM cars...but I watched a S-13 with a swap do a burnout and launch at a stoplight... I still have about 10 more days here to have fun :P            And this JDM keyboard on this comp is hard to find the keys...so sorry if there is a lot of typo,s.....  __________________

JDM keyboard > USDM keyboard.... but the Chinese keyboard's confusion > all.
Glad you made it there safely! __________________

I just had the best meal in a super long time....sashimi, yakitori, tako salad, unagi-donburi....everything was super good...and mostly homemade...plus the uncle-in-law (both of them) love me...we drank up a storm...beer, red wine, sake, scotch, and whiskey...
well...one uncle-in-law picked us up at the mom-in-laws house, and drove us to the other uncle-in-laws house...with his one day old...brand new Toyota Primeriuos..or something like that..I didn`t take any pics of it...but it was sweet... then after the dinner...the other aunt-in-law drove us home in her mint AE92...hehe...there are a few pics of it... and on the way home...they said they would stop at a shop to let me get a case of beer.... Well...they put me in heaven....just look at the pics... and I got a case of my favorite beer...from Okinawa...Orion.. And a huge ass bottle of Black Lable Kimbashi Sake.....my favorite...I hope I can finish it before I have to go back to the crappy STATES.... I want to live here again....it`s so much better...and stress-less more recent pics here...near the bottom... and yes...a huge turbo SUV.... __________________

Wow!!! What a day!!!!
woke up, post whored a little, then my buddy came and picked me up in his Daily driver Sizuki minicar...and we went to his buddies house and I helped install a ground kit on the engine, and then we went to his house to swap cars...and he disappeared and popped back up with a DVD present for me...A NHK news documentary of the designing and building of the Z Car..... Then we swung by on Autobacks to look around...nothing....but in the parking lot there was a race built MR-2 that cought my eye...so I went over and got some pics. At the house we had lunch, and watch the before mentioned DVD...I almost cried...it was beutifull... Then we headed out for more car shops..and we hit Up-Garage first...nothing realy there that I needed or could buy for anyone...so we left...and there was an AE86 in the parking lot that cought my attention..so I took some pics of it with the Advan A3As on in the rear...hey...I have a set of them....hehe. Then we went to another used parts place...and nothing again....but wait...as we was leaving.....I noticed a small box the had R180 on it.....and a LSD in it...my heart skipped a few beats....My Z has a R180....open diff. And then I looked closer....it was a nismo 2-way LSD...barely used...almost in a new condition....after getting to the price...I was afraid to even look any more....but I had to...even if to tease myself with another wet dream.... and I dropped my jaw on the ground and steped on my tounge....it hurt....the price was 18900 yen...and I just had to grab it take it to the counter to find out more about it. The previous guy that had it couldnt use it in his diff...he has the turbo diff...and this was for the NA diff...which mine is...so I walked out with a new 2-way for $190.....huge score!!!!!! So then we went to another Autobacks so my buddy can buy something...he wanted to buy me some Nismo stickers since I just got a Nismo diff....what a cool guy. And then just more cars there and more pics....and he remembered a shop in the area that had only AE86's...and he got the dirrections and loaded it in his navi...and we hit the road. We pulled up to this small car sales lot...and there was nothing but AE86's there..honestly....just a shit load of AE86's....all clean and ready to drive. They had a shop in the back that they just pump out the cars with...a simple little shop...a bay for parts swapping, and a bay for body work...and they did a hell of a job...the pics should show how good they are.... I almost cried....I missed my AE86.... There was one there for over $42Ks...completely restored and rebuilt to factory specks, as it it just came thru a time machine...it was hot...the black one. after talking to the owner...and admireing the cars...a another one pulled in...he was there to get a strut towerbar...and I asked him for a few pics...and that made his day, so he turned on all the lights to please my camera. I counted over 34 AE86`s there....what a car whore....hehe then we headed off for some sushi on a conveyerbelt.....kurukuru-sushi...it was awesome...and perfect...great taste and great price....$1 a plate.....the three of us downed 50 plates...hehe... <---sushi whore... I`ll let the pics speak for them selves...I typed up a full huge post...but the comp went freaky...and lost it. The pics of the day... Cliff notes. Rode all day in a StageA on steriods. saw a shit load of cars. bought a nismo 2 way LSD for my Z. Found an AE86 only car lot. Had more sushi and beer. __________________
