The RB26 was only in the Autech version, but it's still got the RB20/25's, with the 26 swap being a good option still.

i don't understand why japan parking lots have that middle bar thing that touches the bottom of the car... how can people not complain with it scratches their exhaust pipe or body kit?

those bar things are lowered when you first enter. once you pay, they go up to prevent people from stealing ur car i guess.

skyxx 08-30-2009 03:19 PM

Yup same with china. :)

TRDood 08-30-2009 04:24 PM

the weird thing was the bling bling DAD shop was off the streets of shinsaibashi, an area called America-mura..

they have a newer scion BB in there that's balling too.

Lol really :haha: seems kinda silly to me, unless it gives ur tires a good puncture, otherwise I think a thief would just drive off, although it's japan and you could probably leave a $10 bill under your wiper and no one would steal it

asian_XL 08-30-2009 05:00 PM

cars in japan and hong kong are much cleaner than cars in china, taiwan and korea.
you rarely see a dirty car on the road.

shenmecar 08-30-2009 07:59 PM

Holy shit that SL is ridiculous. Its a fucking disco ball on wheels.

donot521 08-31-2009 07:52 AM

I went to Japan like 10yrs ago in the Shinjuku area.....seriously like 80% of the cars I saw were WHITE in color. I wonder if this is true in all Japan.

hk20000 08-31-2009 10:54 AM

Yes they like their white goods. Like white Corolla and Zojirushi and Sanyo.

Those parking things are to prevent YOU from parking there without paying, so they don't have to hire traffic warden to give out tickets. Theives don't give two shits if the bottom of the car is scratched.

Granted any forced exit will cause an alarm to sound, but....who cares.

yoall 08-31-2009 04:57 PM

Hope you dont mind me sharing some pictures i took when i was in Japan.

Yes, most cars are white.

tofu1413 08-31-2009 08:00 PM

white= national racing color

TRDood 08-31-2009 08:42 PM

which area is this?

http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t...l/IMG_0463.jpg

seems like you are near some whore houses.. LOL

it's funny how japan probably have the sweetest and nastiest porn industry in the world. BUT the japanese government does not allow hookers to stand on the streets.

if you want hoes, you need to go to "free information" booths. it's basically an empty store, but me and my friends were too afraid to go in and not "purchase"

LOL

why is that? i always wondering why too... it dosen't rain? don't get driven much/short distances? cars are always under covered parking most of the time?

Eastwood 09-01-2009 01:59 PM

I wish in Tokyo a couple weeks ago. I didn't see that many nice cars to be honest. I don't know if you have to get out of the city or not. I saw a couple R34's and an R35 but nothing exotic.
