Yes, thats from AutoCraft

Some cool parts. the side mirrors are small cameras in tiny pods.

The panel gap between the bonnet and front screen was absolutely horrendous. about 6 inches of nothing.

I posted more pics on MRC

I tried to get there on sunday after your recommendation on friday but i got stuck in chiba traffic for 5 hours and couldnt get there. I left at 10:30 and only got to area around 4:00, they also changed finishing time to 5:30 ,I thought it closed at 6pm. Oh well, maybe next year.

Where were you coming from?
Did you use Shutoko?

I think there was a truck fire. I saw something on the tv about one.

I went of wrong exit I think and ended up in some crazy traffic, Only had 8 km to get to makuhari but took about 4 hours to only go 5km, there was a rail bridge where i was stuck for over an hour, moved about 50m, gave up after that and went to a tabehodai. There was a truck fire on the highway near me but opposite direction to chiba, was over near wako somewhere. Thanks for the pics, your blog gave me an idea of what autosalon was like, and what i missed.

wow, very nice pics !

the Vorschlag FD looks nice, but I had to laugh,...that's german and just means suggestion

The FD with Rx8 front is pretty interesting somehow, and the nats FC is just NUTS !

ReXtreme, just wanted to say, very nice green FD. I think i saw your car on friday after tokyo auto salon at daikoku futo ( i think it was your's ). I was there with mr.koseki in the scoot car. Something about dark green on FDs just seemed cool.

Did you get a ride in the Scoot machine.

It's awesome, I shot it with Newera in 2004. Amamzing!

Yep , green one was mine.

Why sucked? I thought it was one of the better years.

Radigash.
I remember when I first got my FD I went to the beach in chiba from Nerima. I didn't use Expressway.
It took 4 hours there and 4 hours back. stupid.

Sometimes you get stuck also and you cant change.
I remember fuji speedway for D1 2003.
1.5 hours - 500 meters. I could see the enterance which made it more frustrating.
