Shinjuku, by Night...
Finally some nice night time photos of Shinjuku district!
It's such a buzzing place, but good to enjoy too, sometimes!
It certainly makes for some interesting city lighting Photos!
Downtown Shinjuku, check it out sometime you're in town!
Also, some of the BEST foods found down the side streets...
Like this AWSOME Okonomiyaki, mmmm I'll be back here!
TEC-ARTS...
Here's some photos from a recent trip to Tec-Art's AE86... for a quick chat, some business, and just some general chillin out and AE86 chat...Kamata-San, and his crew eat, sleep, drink, smoke, breathe AE86s, i've yet to meet anyone so heavily involved, serious passion...
Kanazawa San met me early in the morning not far from Yashio, We had left a full day aside to relax and just enjoy, OPTION magazine were there also shooting a newly built Demo AE86 and the ECO-86...
After 5 hours of talking, smoking, drinking, and racing about in the cars, it had got dark, and we were hungry... we headed off for dinner and talk some business. They are VERY keen on Ireland, and know the scene quite well, and are genuinely considering a trip over, both for tuning business/mapping, and pleasure, holiday of AE86s, so lets see how it goes.. Enjoy the few photos for now! More coming soon...
I'm sure you have all seen this famous Time Attack AE86...
Check out this recent 4AGTE Turbo build for a customer!
Hmmm does this '86 look familiar to you guys? It should...
Indeed it is the real deal..Tsuchiya Drift King's personal AE86...

Yokohama by Day...
Back to Yokohama for some checking out and catching up!
Ahh I just never get tired of Yokohama...Guess it's meant to be!
As a city, it just feels so perfectly balanced, and suited to me!
It's got something for everyone...including Chinatown!
We didn't stay long, but got some 'tourist day' pics :p
Chichibu...
Some photos from Chichibu, Saitama-ken (Miki's hometown). Chichibu is a really nice place, friendly, relaxed, and very VERY countryside. Luckily we were there at Festival time too!
The Chichibu Ryusei Festival takes place mid October, and is literally a Rocket festival...with alot of history from the Dragon! A long trek out to the mountains and you're greeted by 1000s of people making there way up to the hills to watch...A Great day out!
Huge Rockets are made all year round...they build up like this...to immitate the style of the Dragon, before take off...AMAZING!
Arai Family...Arigato, Always! Can't wait for Summer Matsuri!
We then took a quick drive up the Chichibu Touge roads...
Check out this view over the mountains...Great city - Chichibu!

Disney Sea...
Some snaps from our last trip to Disney Sea (not for everyone, but trust me, its worth a visit. Having passed Disney LOTS of times, I finally got the chance to visit, with Miki. Now I can't wait to go back, was a great time! I was reluctant at first with the crowds, crazy girls loving Disney, but the shows, rides and scenery are impressive!
There is simply nothing like this in Ireland, even Europe?!...
The scale of the park is just HUGE, like it's own city!
Of course we had to take some of our own night time photos!
Last thing at night, Fireworks show..then off for dinner!

Tokyo, by Night...
Having had a great time catching up with friends, and a little business, Miki and Me decided to enjoy spending time in Tokyo!
As crazy as it is, it's still great being in Tokyo, I realised how much I had missed this crazy, buzzing city! Roll on the future move...
