while in tokyo

sleepyhead · 04-03-2008, 03:45 PM

I'm on vacation in Tokyo right now and I'm disappointed because I have not see any new STI's or Evo's. I've seen some hot ferrari's and porsche's plus an accident with a taxi and a porsche gt3 (i have pics). Just in case anyone cares I'm staying in Roppongi.

Anyone know of anything I can buy here STI wise that I can't get in the states? Besides recaros and anything else I can't fit in my bags ;-)

You can buy japanese girls used under wear out of a machine.

Or beer in a vending machine (my personal favorite).

Haha funny the stuff they keep in those.

go to Super Autobacs, it's in tokyo bay (i think) and it's real close to the JR line stop. Although i never went, there are shops called Up Garage which sell used parts for a number of cars. apparently there are some cool parts to find there. Also see what kind of special events are going on. When i was there the Tokyo Motorsports Festival was happening i was able to find an awesome steering wheel. If you want to find how to go somewhere find the address online and see if the person at the front desk can help you. Also, if you haven't already pick up one of those rail system maps. they're a god send

I will post up some pics of the crashed GT3 in a bit.

Autobacs is the sh*t. I bought a bunch of stuff for my 300ZX when I was stationed in Japan. I wish we could use the radios from over there....they have some sick ICE over there.

I'm in Nagoya right now, and this place is like a subaru dead spot,no convenient dealers around, and so far i only saw 1 S-GT , no STI's.
Tachikawa (spelling?) is a place outside tokyo, has the best STI parts place apparently (i never made it there yet). still seeing if its feasible to make a day trip from Nagoya. bullet train cost might rule that out, i think its ~100bux to get to tokyo

All the bases had them back in the 80's. Does the Army still have them? That would be awesome if they did, they would be the only brach of the armed forces to still have them. Also I am pretty sure they don't have them on every base, Iraq would be one noteable exception....
