Pics from Japan (FDs, GTRs, etc. etc.)

I'm gonna be in Japan for a month so I thought I'd take pictures whenever I came across a cool car. I'll start with a pretty sweet FD I saw today. Had a bunch of neat parts, like RE-A dolphin tail exhaust, RE-A rear diffuser, Advan wheels, crazy wide-fender/body kit and front bumper, and a full DEFI gauge setup. I'm sure that if I had seen the owner around I could have got some under-hood shots (people are NICE here, and plus they like to show off), but I didn't see the guy around. It's a bit over the top for my tastes, but then again I think '99 spec FDs look best when they're stock, so I can't say much.

i don't like the AMemiya muffler.. some how it just "feels" restrictive to me.. that small exit can't release all that Hot Rotary exhaust fast enough

but that's just me.. i'm partial to the 3-4" Cannon like my HKS Drager

From the Skyline specialist shop down the street. I wish they kept their 9-second(on regular street tire) GT-Rs outside so I could get good pictures, but there was a cool R34 GT-R with some sweet wheels sitting outside. Also a few pics of my neighbor's Fairlady Z.

Anyone know what cities major tuning shops are in (i.e. R-Magic, RE-A, MCR, etc.)? I've got a rail pass so I can go all over Japan.

Just because some of them are japanese, doesent mean some of them cant be ricers. Thats like saying a black man cant be raciast.

an exhaust tip is not going to hinder performance, there's plenty of other factors that will (i.e. bend, piping diameter, chambered muffler, etc)- but shoot why not go 5 or 6" then! haha jk - i love the dolphin tail exhaust!
