Back from the land of JDM

I just got back from Japan where I spent the last two weeks. Lots of interesting rides there. Besides a LOT of Skylines I did see quite a few Evo 5s, and noticed many more Subaru's on the street. I checked out one of the Subaru dealers and they had a Blue STi sitting in the lot. Sadly I didn't have my camera so no pictures.

I also came across a cool Tamiya RC model of the impreza WRX 2004 in one of the hobby shops:

Has anyone seen this at any of the Hawaii Hobby shops?

I miss Japan. Went there 2 years ago. So easy to pick up chicks in Tokyo... Did you check out the Lake Hakone Hot Springs? Expensive.....but nice. I spotted so many GT-R's and Silvia's. Spotted some BES while I was there too.
