Not so much about going to Japan, more so the price. ^^^ that is for two people, including all taxes and levies, RETURN... and Povostar's cattle-spec 'video on demand' option.

 

I'm pretty chuffed. :D

You have to love visa as-well ,

 

a few years back I signed up for a garage kit 22 x 50 and the firm garage world, they went bankrupt, visa refunded my deposit of $1200. got to love that protection.

Heh... only a Visa debit. Credit cards are the tool of satan...

 

I have a few extra days up my sleeve this time so I can get to more auctions... instead of ogling the cosplay girls in Harajuku :D

Hmmmm, Pornstar.

 

Hope you make it. :D

 

I believe that may be in the section out near the wing tip, either that or you'll have to take a turn pedalling to keep the motors going!

we use credit cards all the time, usually gets up to the $8k limit every month but we always pay it off and have NEVER paid interest. this way we get all those bonus shopping vouchers.

 

some people get into a trap and end up paying interest every month and never pay off the principal.

I always carry a roll of gaffa tape, cordless drill and some pop rivets when I fly Jetstar. Also I'm not a religious man, but I find picking a diety at random to worship during the flight seems to help. This trip I'm wingin' it with Pauahtun, the mayan sky god.

 

Only to those that treat them with no respect...

 

Indeed... respect and a sense of responsibilty are not exactly qualities I would attribute to the average credit card basher... and from what I can tell, that seems to be a disturbing percentage of the population. Last year, induvidual personal debt was something like 500Bn. That scares me. I've always believed you shouldn't spend money you don't have. Simple mathematics says you're only going to end up worse off.

 

aaaaaanyway.... JZX100's have come down about 3-4k since I was there in March so I have high hopes :)

Are you arranging to have a container of stuff shipped back if you buy a car, or just getting the car transported?

 

A container would be good as you could make back some of the money you spend on bringing the car over. :lol: And sell us parts at still reasonable prices!

 

SHOPPING (WISH) LIST FOR ADAM:

2x AE101 4A-GZE's

1x BEAMS 3S-GE & six-speed manual

2x ST245 3S-GTE's

3x sets of AE111 4A-GE 20v quad throttles

1x VVT 1UZ-FE

2x AE111 4A-GE 20v's

2x AE111 C160 six-speed manual transaxles

1x TE27 Sprinter

1x ST205 Celica GT-Four (race use only)

1x ST245 Caldina GT-Four (manual)

 

Need I go on? ;)

I'll have to add another one of everything you want for myself, bar the transaxles. :lol:

 

I'm only really buying cars this time, and shipping RoRo cos its cheap.

 

I'd LIKE to be buying a buttload of parts as well and shipping them with a car in a container, but I haven't quite secured that part of the network yet. Hopefully I can sort out a few more contacts and set it up for next time.

I should also have a bit more coin to throw around if I don't go stupid at the auctions and buy cars I can actually SELL rather than what appeals to me...

 

Except of course, my Chaser, which will never be sold and eventually be inherited by my as yet unborn children. ;)
