Going to JAPAN this spring!! Woot Woot!!!

[sa3reghatch]

Well, my mom just told me she is going back to Japan to visit her brother this Spring probably in May. Told her I'm going, cuz I havent been to Japan in over 20 years. Gonna be gone for about 2 weeks. I'm gonna try and hit up as many tracks there as possible, starting with Tsukuba. Also gonna hit up some tuner shops, I know there are plenty where my Uncle lives(Osaka area). Good thing is I have 2 male cousins who are just a little younger than me (early 20's), I'm sure at least one of them is into cars and knows some underground type shit he can show me. Plus they are also single, so I know they know some females they can introduce me to:naughty: . Gonna have to get a camcorder though, gonna take some mad video footage. Will probably be the last time I ever go back:cry: . If anyone has been there somewhat recently, any places that I should visit while I am there would be greatly appreciated.

You're going to have a lot of fun in Osaka and drinking a lot of osake. :naughty:

I'm going to Japan in the summer time. I'll be 20 (legal drinking age in Japan) by then (in 4 days, actually). I'm going to Up Garage..

If your going to Osaka just walk around Dotonburi and the Nanba area thats like main shopping areas. Also go to bic camera and look at all the cool cell phones and other electronics. I used to spend hours in that store.

You know Tsukuba is no where near Osaka right? It's like an hour north of Tokyo.

I want to go to Japan over the summer but it seems like Nissan doesn't plan on holding their design internship again this year...

Or maybe they just don't feel like updating their website...
