Holy carp. I TOTALLY forgot to mention that I got to meet dstyle (Chris) the other day. I'd actually typed it and hit 'post dat chit, yo'!'m but IE ate doodies and it didn't post. Then I'd forgotten what i'd posted originally, etc.
Anyway, Chris is cool, and I hope I didn't make him late for class. Oh, and when he paid $500 for his K's Silvia, he robbed them BLIND. Dang.

B-wave: sorry.. I'm not into Chinpokomon. I'm all about the Hello Kitty and Badtz-maru

Choku: oooh awesome. If i DO see any of them, I'll be sure to rev on them.

PT: I should've given it back to you before we left, but it inadvertently got packed. My bad. I'll make it up to you.

Glad: that'd be appreciated. I'll send you a PM with my email address if that makes it easier. When you get into town (or while you're on Yokota) Try calling me here on the base (Navy Lodge Room 215).. Or wait.. did you send me your cell #? I need to check.

I FINALLY met some people here on Atsugi.. One guy has a nice 180 he bought from Great Company (who are apparently only about 30 minutes away), another guy has a 180 (with a CA19DET) that he's built pretty much by himself (and it's turned out quite nicely).
I found where some junkyards are, and Lisa, Emma and I are going on a field trip tomorrow.

C'est tout.

New chit:
Found junkyards, but can't speak japanese.

Found tuned car dealers but prices are too high.

Found R32 GTR wheels. :-) but they want ~100000yen for them.
Talked to Gladhatter on the phone today. We were supposed to meet up for a burger or something, but it looks like it'll have to be later in the week. He's staying in the New Sanno Hotel in Tokyo. I hear those are some fine digs.

Watched Drift Tengoku Video magazine vol 21. It's good. You get to see the 'Gal Ikaten' The chick who wins could beat most anyone on this board.
There's a good piece on how to re-route your fender arch wiring harness into your engine bay in ~3 hours with no wire cutting... (for S14, anyway)
It's a good video.

oh. You guys are going to this one...
Found a kouki S14 (silver, stock aero, exhaust and it's a Qs auto) for $3500. lol
I'm not touching it. it's pretty, but it wouldn't be as much fun as a car I could get for cheaper. Plus, i'd to crash it.

Anyhoo.

I should be online regularly in... 3 weeks, maybe? look out, too.. i'm gonna turn this place upside down.

XE.com converts that to $929.20, which is high...but...I've seen a pair of those rims on ebay ONCE, ....selling for $1,500 used (obviously). They are super rare...and hot.......of course if a BMW 850 is selling for $5k...then the price of those rims is a bit disproportionate.

Anyhow.....keep up the good work with the Imagestation pics.....good stuff. Get some good pics of the aftermarket shops (Up-garage..etc.) inventories. I know its used stuff....but its fun to see that stuff.
