I'm in Tokyo. What should I do and what should I see? It's my JDMM trip. I'd like to see some hot cars but I'm not sure the best way to find them. I was thinking about trying to find some tuning shops. Has anyone been to Tokyo before? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cow bell.

All I've really heard of people doing when they are in Japan is going to Spoon Sports/Type One..
Thats unless you know Japanese, then I'm sure you can get around more places. I doubt your really gonna find any crazy deals over there anyway

Check out Super Autobacs, Signal Auto, Trust, the Honda Motorsports Museum, and definitely hang in Akihabara district. If you get a chance, snatch model brochures for the JDM vehicles. I'd definitely like one for the NSX-R, Integra-R, Civic-R, and Skyline GTR. You could probably sell them on ebay too.

I'm sure if everyone rifled through their old ricer magazines they could come up with some cool places to go. I seem to remember a place that specialized in Skylines but I can't remember the name.

Ed, You should also test drive all of those right hand drive cars, and take pictures at the dealerships.
