Hi SAU,

heading over to Tokyo next week just wanting to know if there are any good places to look for small auto parts, like a powerPC/AVC-R/Stuff that will fit ina suitcase?

will be in Ueno for a week or so then heading to Kyoto and then back to Takeshiba. but i will be trying to travel around most of Tokyo.

heading over for a holiday but i thought if there was anywhere good to go i would try and squeeze in some shopping while i'm there.

So sad that i am missing out on the Nismo fest, booked my flights and accomidation and then found out about the event. last time i book anything before checking SAU.

Thanks.

Pick and choose what you want from the sticky http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/JA...NKS-t37461.html

Up garage is certainly worth a look especially for second hand stuff - there are heaps of them around (even in small towns), try using the website from the sticky to see which is closest to where you are going.

I'll be in Tokyo early next year. Do you have an address or map on where this UpGarage is located? Searched their site but couldn't locate this particular store.

Up Garage ..all over Japan

Autobacs ..all over Japan

Super Autobacs.. all over Japan

Yellow Hat... all over Japan

Crystal ..good shop in Chiba just down the road from Top Secret. They had specials on Power FC's for around the 70-80,000yen mark a couple of weeks ago.

Jump on the internet and use google maps and find a shop near where your staying as plenty around. If you are renting a car get the phone number of the shop and punch it the gps and you'll be sweet.

They've turned that Up Garage into a Riders now, so they only have bike stuff there, not car stuff.

      Gtr r32 tank leaking: can I use stagea whc34 tank

      By Duncan · Posted

      Is WHC34 a 2 wheel drive Stagea?  4wd Stagea 100% fits, and I'd say 99% sure 2wd will too....they just used the GTR setup as that best suited the wagon floor. BTW I hope you saw Brett's post about potential reasons for a leak, unless you can see the plastic cracked somewhere, it is unlikely to be the tank itself leaking.  Can you see fuel dripping or is it just a smell when you park? Have you had any of the tank/pump holder apart?

      They did get back to me. First response is from the mechanic that did the work. The problem is that the information that followed wasn't in the original report, which again, I let car inspect know should have been provided and influenced my decision to buy. Ball is back in their court and they have 5 more days to respond.  The actual structural damage was not a complete write off as they had me originally believe.  It just needed to be corrected properly and cleanly as opposed to the botch job of whoever did it last on the rad support and undercarriage. Smoothed out the scrappy welds and did it properly plus painted.

      Haven't updated this is a while. -5 speed conversion is done. Then center console, parking brake handle, and mounting bracket can be adapted from a R34 since the S2 parts are all disco. Console is a slightly different grain pattern and color but works fine. R33/ R34 GTS (no booster) clutch pedal works as well as the matching master cylinder. Wiring is simple, jump the starter connector at the fuse box, note which wires are connected at which position on the auto neutral safety switch and cut off the switch harness and connect to the corresponding switch on the 5 speed. -Rear R34 rear subframe swap is completed. Full Nismo arm set, 2-way LSD set up soft, 322mm Brembo brakes, Ohlins Flag-R coil overs (need to drop the spring rate 1Kg) -RB swap is under way. HKS Step 2 High Response 2.8 BCD stroker kit / Step 2 V-Cam / GTIII 4R Kit I may not use the 4R kit but not sure yet as I've seen some pretty decent dyno sheets on it and it doesn't spool as slow as people think when you have v-cam. I have the wiring manual for the car and a spare 260RS harness so the wiring shouldn't be that bad but I just haven't had the time to invest in it. If anyone has a suggestion for someone who can handle it let me know! I have a bunch of spare 5mt swap parts and some Nismo 580 turbos if anyone needs/wants them hit me up. Located in California but willing to ship. As always, thanks to all the members who have answered my questions and helped this project keep moving!

      Did Car Inspect get back to you? How bad was the actual "structural" damage? What front surgery was required?
