If you're lucky...they might have a track day at Fuji Speedway
I see man, I might have a cell phone hooked up, but I can always use the phone at Keio Plaza, so it's all good. Oh thanks for the numbers man I appreciate it!

Oh NICE! Fuji Speedway, that would be a hell of a photoshoot haha

I live around Osaka in the kansai region.

as a visitor you won't be able to do it, cuz they're starting to replace thos with smart vending machines.

you have to go to city hall to get a card that idetifies you to be of legal age
and you have to use it everytime you get smokes or beer from those vending machines. Even the machines are carding ppl....hahahahaz

Man that really sucks now, I just can't go and buy those Mild Sevens on the side of the street that's readily available...I guess those local convenient store is the way to go, or those little conventional stores. Nice, hit me up when you move back to Japan!

I'm going to be heading to Taiwan first for a week or 2, then I'm going to Japan for like 2 weeks, then back to Taiwan again. haha So it should be fun.

Haha, something that dangles in your rear view mirror? How about a JDM dice? That's hella VIP!!! haha I'll take a look around and see what's good, I'll try to login to clublexus often, I think Keio Plaza Hotel has internet connection. And let you know then.

Yea man it's a good vacation time.

Are you sure? Dice is the must-have VIP item on the do-list! No problem I'll try to take pics if I can and post them up and see if anybody wants them.

Dude guys, I'm here in Taiwan already and will be leaving to Japan soon in a week or so. But DAMN is it HOTTT!!!!! It's 40 degrees Celcius everday (about 120 degrees Farenheit), luckily we have air conditioning in our house so it's nice and cool in my room. I'm going to be visiting the Super Autobacs in Taipei these couple days, and the Yellow Hat in Taipei. It should be cool. There also some car meets I'm attending too so hopefully thats fun. I'll take pictures of my journey and hopefully be able to upload them and let you guys check it out.

Hahaha, I don't know if I can find them, I'll try to help you out, but a bunch of my friends wants me to bring them back cigs also. I'm only limited to a certain amount of cartons per person. So I'll have to see if I have room and not exceed my limit. I'm planning to get myself some Mild Seven, or their other stuff Seven Star. I might be heading to SoCal so if I get some of those I'll hit you up!

Hey Shivesh, what's up man? Long time no see you on the forums man. Sure, I think I'll be visiting the Toyota and Lexus dealership in Japan, and I'll help you ask for the soarer visors' price.

Thanks I know I'll have a blast, it's already tight here in Taipei, but once I get to Tokyo it's going to be sick. I just went to the Autobacs in Taipei, and it was hella tight, I bought so much stuff. I'll post up some camera phone pics, I might go back again and take pics with my SLR and maybe post that later for better resolution.
