My short Japan trip - Jan 15'

[JDM101]

Reached 14th(8pm) - left 18th(9pm)

Quite newish plane, had this cool gimmick where it was electronically opaque or see through

Reached Japan :)

Narita Express into Tokyo

Sah clean and the carriages always lined up to the number on the platform

Heaps of leg room

Where you at?

First visit to a combini and straight to the drinks - loved the Royal milk tea

15th Around Akihabra area and Tokyo bay

Next morning it was raining

Went to this massive hobby store nearby

Walking around

Ofcourse a kebab joint

Got hungry

Made our way to Lexus Intersect

Hungry again..

hmm where to go next, ok Autobacs!

Lots of car dash cameras

dat size

All about Prius and Hiace mods it seemed :(

and ofcourse 86 mods..

Sorry nothing for JZX100s

16th

Weather was looking good today and our plan was to go see Toyota MegaWeb and plan as we go afterwards.

Wangan train m8:

Reached it:

continuing @ MegaWeb

We were pretty much done viewing these cars now - much that we won't see in Australia nor really had our interest. So made our way to the History Garage next door.

Called it a day - mate made his way back and I headed out to Shibuya to catch up with another mate for dinner.

17th

Did some touristy stuff today

but then after we left ...

Made our way to Yokohama

Dat courtesy..

Would sir like music too?

Was walking back to the station through this quite residential area, BAM 34 GTR - it just seemed that not a single car was dirty in Tokyo? as a detailer I'd either struggle or I'd be doing well? lol

18th

This spot (near mates place), always had something fresh parked lol.

Ginza, we is here

need food..

Great food, really affordable too. Now lets go car hunting. We only in the most expensive part of town, so surely something nice has to be around?

Not in Ginza area but lol ..

how clean even the bus wheels were !

And then sadly, the time for departure arrived :( .. got the NEX from Tokyo again. Loved how the carriages would line up to the sticker on the platform (to indicate which carriage# to get in).

I could've done a whole lot of other things, well aware and I missed out on Daikoku Futo but really, I had the time of my life doing whatever I got upto. The food is cheap, public transport is always on time or early (also cheap) - got a Suica card made + prepaid data only simcard ($30 with 3gb on NTT Docomo) use google maps and go wherever you want. I felt so under dressed with all the suited up people around all the time lol. Missed out on USS Auctions as Iron Chef's flight got delayed from Gold Coast. That's ok - next time :)
