Nice Pics

 

Suzuki concept car, powered by a 1300cc motor from the Hayabusa motorcycle


Carbon/kevlar front lip for FD by Cockpit Tatebayashi:


Look at the Auto Select billet strut bar


Top Secret cold air intake for DC5 (nicest one at TAS - IMO)


Super-expensive Quantum dampers (buried in a corner of the Redline oil booth)

 

nice pic's Shane ...I'll get that picture of the Slot machine'd car to ya soon

 

cool pix.

got anymore of the FD?

 

I only took a couple, and they are of the diffusers, not the whole car. I think ITRinEJ1 will have some nice pics when he gets back.





Dave, that slot machine car was outta this world - I liked it

 

Great stuff, Shane!!! You must have been in heaven. You've now seen enough stuff to put you 2-3 years ahead of what's going on in America!

Also, gotta love the dish on the wheels on that Benz! The Japanese really seem to dig deep dish wheels.

 

Crazy nice stuff there! I wish I could go there some day.

 

That's it, next time I'm going! Nice pics man

Miguel

 

I will be posting about 150 pics next week sometime!

Cars, girls(one of Kozue for Kengs) and of course.. RICE!!

 

Nic pics Shane! Is that Mr. Option guy Eiji Yamada?

Rob,

They do come in 5x114 (dunno which offsets), but the smallest size is like 17x7.

 

I think the Auto Select strut bars share a close resemblence to dinosaur bones they're huge!

Here's a closeup pic of the Auto Select strut bar:

Thanks Scott. It's good to be back in the US, but I really like Tokyo - would have no problem living there

You should go next year
