im currently spending my whole summer in hong kong working as a product design intern at mattel. i decided to take advantage of the short 4 hr flight to tokyo to visit my friend before i return back to canada. so i took a few days off from work and packed my bags.

first stop, spoon sports, of course!

arrived at spoon sports and mr. ichishima came out and told us to hop in the spoon van so one of the mechanics could drive us to type one.





























































picked up some decals at spoon sports and also picked up my pair of takata harnesses from my friends place.

 

next stop was super autobacs in tokyo bay.



























picked up a small piece of mugen.

 

Awesome...that white hardtop s2k is wicked! Bringing home any souvenirs?

 

yeah, the s2k is sick. i was upstairs when it pulled in.

i have some parts here and there. mostly smaller items since bringing them back is an issue.

 

after super autobacs we headed to tokyo megaweb.

 

Jimmy..nice pics bro! You lucky bastard...I need to make a trip to japan.

 

how long are you in hong kong for?

i'm flying in on aug. 24th and will be there until the end of dec., but im going for school

any suggestions on some stuff to do, i have no idea what to expect

sick pics btw

 

spoon k20 truck

 

its nice to be in japan but i miss track days at pr haha.

i've been in hong kong since beginning of may. i'll be leaving in september.
hit me up on im, rino.

 

will do man, i need someone to show me some loops

im gettin' pretty pumped up about it

 

Wow, good **** bro!!! EXACT same places I went too when I was there a couple of weeks back. You went to all three places in one day?

Did you happen to catch my thread??

 

How they put the car on the upper rack?

 

yeah, i went to all 3 places in one day haha, aswell as the honda welcome plaza between spoon and super autobacs, but there wasn't anything special there really.

i saw your thread last week, got me pumped haha.

 

there is a lift behind that blue dc5.

Did you get SPOON COFFEE? haha. But youre lucky that they drove you to Type One. We had to walk there. It wasn't that far though.

Must have been an adventure to go to all three places in one day. Spoon is on the opposite site of Tokyo in comparison to Super Autobacs. Good stuff though, I miss Japan. That place was so badass

 

no spoon coffee haha.

i stayed in shinjuku, so spoon was kinda close. good thing my friend who lives in japan showed me the way or else it would have taken me a few days haha.

 

Very rad. Thanks for the pics.

That tan/lavender leather interior is pretty gnarly.

 

wuts the price difference...between buyin takata's here and in jp

 

price is the same for new ones actually.

i got my pair on yahoo japan auctions for 40,000 yen. roughly 400usd. expires 2012 and they were display pieces.....really mint. only problem was that it didn't come with eyebolts......but those are cheap anyways.

 

cool pics

 

Very nice pics, I went to that same Super Autobacs when I was in Tokyo.

 

beautiful Spoon S2000

 

 

oooh Spoon. I envy you. Thanks for posting pics!
