$4000 US money should last a week with everything I would want to do. That includes the 14hr 1 way flight. C33 LAUREL knows where I would go HEHE

Depending on the month, I would say less then $800, and you could stay here at my place...that would save you a little in hotel money...and Tokyo is just a train ride away.

I went to Tokyo last year and was there for a week for under $250 (not including airfaire and hotel). I would have liked to probably spend double that though on touristy stuff. But I would say if C33 lets you stay at his place, $1500 should be plenty (including the plane ticket). Maybe $2000 if you feel like spending a lot, or buying souvineers for other people.

eventual plan is R32 for street, R30 for strip duty. Those guys up there roll fat bank and I could never touch the true players. That's fine I may not be that fast but I am always faster than people expect Japanese guys don't like losing to a roundeye in a beater.

Lol. Thats so true. They hate it even worse when you beat them with their old parts while you still retain a/c and power steering.

I think my best kill was Japanese guy in 84' vette losing to me in 85' Skyline. That's some sick irony man!
