Okay guys, my luck isn't to great today, junkyard was interesting but not the cars i wanted to see, and tonights weather in Tsuyama city is 0 celsius and will be raining...now in the mountains might have black ice, due to weather...maybe no touge runs for anyone until late april i was told.

I did take a few pictures on how narrow the roads are here in Tsuyama and its like this everywhere...since its a country town and not a major city, people drive around each other...although i am loving the quiet nature around this place...and the homes here are over 400yrs old but not these houses i don't think, they look somewhat new maybe. K-san is taking me to the Tsuyama city castle maybe sat or monday.....that should be interesting

here are the pics of the roads and houses around tsuyama city;

yokotas13 · 03-07-2008, 02:23 PM

i cant believe my 180 is still there....

Good luck dude. Great job on the pix so far.

svensko · 03-08-2008, 09:21 PM

With a culture that seems heavily centered around cars, what kind of gas prices are you finding?

Driven08 · 03-08-2008, 09:35 PM

Looks awesome over there!

Do you by any chance have any pictures of your trip to the junkyard?

The gas is expensive. They primarily use trains. Gas is anywhere from $5(ish) a gallon and up in the Tokyo area...

Team Aero-K · 03-09-2008, 03:42 AM

ahhhhhhhhh.....just got back to DS Pro office and what a day, me and Eri had a blast but drive so long. Got bunch of stuff so will post pics up later....first call first dibs with money, unless you all want me to do somewhat of an auction on these parts...lol

Went to Up Garage first....pretty cool, but then took a trip to Autobacs and wow.....HEAVEN!!!

Well.....there are about 4 liters to a gallon....
each liter of High Octane runs about 157 yen (close to $1.57)

so...$1.57 x 4 = $6.28 per US Gallon....

yep... and you stateside boys and girls thought YOU had high gas prices.

I did 10 years here from 1993-2003. Been back since May 07. Pretty much setting up to retire here. Looking at buying a house in the near future...

Team Aero-K · 03-09-2008, 05:58 PM

:laugh::laugh: hey peeps, i got to the hotel yesterday night around 11pm and started to upload the pictures, well from drinking beer to hot saki during out dinner party which was awesome....i decided to like lay down on the bed until the uploads were finished and guess what....:boring:

haha i wake up this morning still in the same position i laid down last night waiting for the uploads to finish. Well here they are.

As far as the items i bought, its just to show what i have for now, will maybe go do some more shopping later this week so nothing is for sale yet. You can call dibs on them and send me a deposit but i am not take full payment until i get back, so enjoy!! Oh plus it will be in the For Sale section not here. This is just a picture diary thread!

1. Here is the wonderful Eri san that drove me around yesterday in that Navy Blue Mark JZX100, BALLER when a japanese girl drives you around town in that sick ass car

2. On the way from Tsuyama city to Okayama city....a pretty distant drive but of course scenary is amazing, cause Florida sucks...

**By the way, the highways here are very nice to open up the car but Eri was afraid to...lol 400whp JZX100

3. Arrived in Okayama city in about 1.5 hours.....so took some shots from car while driving towards Up Garage

4. Pulling into Up Garage parking lot....my heart was pounding like a 5 yr old arrive to Disney land for the first time

5. Some cars parked outside in front of store

6. Okay....the rest of the pics are taken from inside and outside Up Garage. And the thing with Up Garage is you have to be lucky that day to catch what you are exactly looking for. Since all used parts and always constantly busy, things fly out the door like no tomorrow.

**Suspension Heaven**

**more wheels inside**

**Turbo's selling for $250-$350 TD06 Trust/Garret/Tomei but all for 1J/2J/RB*

**your JDM bucket/reclinable seats without the worries of waiting for shipping

**Exhaust systems listed under each application, again all USED**

**Sway bars galore**

7. Eri san and I went to Okayama city's mall to have lunch inside, and i saw this Pussy Shag wagon...lol crazy :laugh:

**Then look what i saw in person in the parking garage which i shit a brick.....OMG!!

8. After lunch, we headed to Autobacs and I also found out her brother is a mechanic at Autobacs so he was able to hook it up with a family discount!!

**my dumb ass smiling like i am living my dream, well i guess i was.....:laugh:

**here ya go, more JDM parts galore**

Set 2 coming next

MikeisNissan · 03-09-2008, 06:05 PM

Wow. I envy you.

Team Aero-K · 03-09-2008, 06:08 PM

Set #2

Here are some of the things i bought that was awesome.....and can't find or get in the US....still have to sort out but took some shots, enjoy!!

**my new NOPI DRIFT machine for 2008 season, this thing is fast**

**Universal JDM cup holders pretty nice looking too unlike what we have back home**

**Nismo shift knob**

**LED light thingy for inside car, usually shining down on radio or where ever you would like it to point....cars have em here like crazy, new thing i guess**

**JDM air freshner, so you car smells like Japan, literally...lol**

**3D laser shift knobs for you crazed shift knob lovers, but these are actually pretty cool**

**Cool Decals**

**Bubble Shift Knob**

**JDM license plate border, blue tinted**

Desk full of Japanese goodies

And that is all my friends for now, stay tuned for more stuff later....today is a busy day, we have to go pick up tires, pick up a car transporter for tomorrow's D1SL event, and work on the cars so chat with you all later!!!

240love^_^ · 03-09-2008, 06:11 PM

Awesome pictures.

Team Aero-K · 03-10-2008, 01:27 AM

hey peeps, taking a break from working....so i decided to upload some pics from this morning. Stephen and I from Skay, Ltd. went to the USS auction here in japan, because he had to pick up some papers on a couple of cars he had purchased so i went with him to see what it was like, and i thought...hey why not share it with you guys. The owner of USS is the wealthiest japanese man here in all of Japan. Stephen told me 5000 cars go through here every week. HOLY SHIT!!! well here are the pics.....enjoy, and tomorrow is D1SL....yay yaaayyy:rockon:

**Where the auction happens**

**My favorite, Nissan Stagea**

i did go crazy when i saw all the cars, i mean pushing out 5000 cars a week is mega bucks....it felt nice sitting in the R33 GTR and starting her up and hearing the motor run.

hmm.....some vehicles at USS start at 30,000 yen which is around $300US with no reserve and some start and have a reserve of 150,000 yen. The skyline R33 GTR had no reserve and bidding was starting at i believe 120,000 yen which is $1200US. it disgusted me when i saw how cheap these cars go for, and most of them have coilovers, exhausts, tuning electronics still all left in each vehicle. Like those BBS meshs on the skyline came with car, the FD had full Kit and a worked motor starting at 20,000 yen, $2000US.....unbelievable!

Team Aero-K · 03-10-2008, 07:22 AM

well boys and girls, tomorrow is D1SL.....can't wait to see this in person....I will be awake at 6am and drivingSPORTS will be picking me up at 7am...no posting tomorrow until i get back.....*woot* *woot*
