I'm off to Japan in a little over a week and will be spending about a week in Tokyo.

 

Just had a thought - anyone know of or have any experience of Z goody shopping in Japan? Everything is very expensive there so I'm not holding my breath but any advice/recommendations?

I'm not sure if z32 zone is in Tokyo? If it is I'm sure that'll be worth a looksy :-)

That's the one :-)

Tokyo is definitely on my to do list and hoping for maybe mid to late 2014, anyway enjoy :thumbup1:.

Haha I lived there for 3 years and I didn't know z32 zone existed!! Mind you my zed was tucked up back home, so wasn't in the z mindset...

Omg the prices!! How I don't miss that aspect... :excl:

To give you some idea of Japan from a member on the NI car site RMS have a read through this.

Aren't you half Japanese Gaz - I vaguely remember you saying something like that a while back? If so, do you have family out there you could visit?

My Grandad on my mothers side was Japanese his name was Nakajima. So I was hoping I was related to Satoru Nakajima the F1 driver in the 80s but apparently its a common name lol. But my family line ends on my Mothers side with her dad coming to England to live and I remember seeing him once but he could not speak any English. So my relatives in Japan are unknown to me.
