Default Pics from Japan...56K Harakirisuru!

I'm in Okinawa visiting friends and family...here's some pics...I'll have more when I sync my camera at some point
In the Airport parking lot the day I arrived


Damnit, the Evo was too fast for my shutter hand

I saw this a bunch of times...different front and rear wheels...weird JDM trend maybe

2 GT-Rs!...only ones I've seen the whole time


JDM as all hell...lol

No wait, THIS is JDM as all hell...LOL!!!!

Funny Christmas sale item

One of the 18 Gillion Skylines on the streets

Another JDM trend...kitted out Minivans!!!

Nice Silvia...too fast for me though

Nice RX-7

I'll have more later....

I was in Oki twice. The second time from 95-98 and was fortunate to get a great deal on a turbo skyline that failed JCI. I fixed the oil leak and brakes and passed JCI for a blazing two years! wOOt! That was a fun car on the express way...I would jump on right at Camp Foster and drive all the way up to Hansen.

if the japanes license plates have a Y before the numbers it means a foreigner owns the car -look for kanji plates with the 300 or 500 on the corner it signals how strong the engine is. i used to have a y plate too it gave me the okay to drive as crazy and as fast as i wanted to in japan the police would rather not bother pulling over a Y plate foreigner.
