This show was pretty comedic. I think it was supposed to mostly be for show cars, air bagged demon camber stuff, but there were a few classic cars, a Suzuki Lapin hatchback turned into a truck that I forgot to take a picture of, and one random professional drift car whose owner was very upset he didn't get to set up front and center as he'd been promised. Also, the cops showed up in the morning and impounded a solid dozen illegally modified cars.
Here's some stuff I saw:
Professional Drift S15. Had a 2JZ swap, a quick change rear, and a sequential 5 speed.
Fairlady Z with an engine/transmission/interior swapped out of an S2000.
Really beautiful NSX parked next to a fake 67 Corvette Grandsport.
And, as part of the continuing comedy, it all took place next to the Office of the President of Sexual Harrassment 
and nearby the dock of the Carbonian Faithbond, an evidently quite spiritual, medium sized natural gas tanker.
Think of the resume you have to submit to become President of Sexual Harassment.

Part of me has to know. Part of me is afraid to know. :P
This looked like a fun, funky show. Thanks for sharing!
Very nice! At least until this happened. "Also, the cops showed up in the morning and impounded a solid dozen illegally modified cars."
I guess that is the risk you take.

For a half second I thought that roofline of that (350z?) was a giant hood bulge in vette.
Love seeing this stuff!!! Thanks for posting!!!
I've been to Japan two times and I am going back next year to visit my family who lives there. Each time I've gone it is always my goal to find as many cool and unusual cars as possible. One thing I always looking forward to are some of the local meetups that aren't normally publicized. You can be driving in a parking garage and just stumble upon some of the craziest scenes. So if you ever go to Tokyo and are bored at a crazy late hour, just go driving and you might find a meetup.

I've heard "some people" say Weinstein was "schlonged." Perhaps he'll soon be pardoned and have an exciting new career opportunity? ;p

I'd love to see the build thread on that one.

So I asked some Japanese friends about this place and Harvey probably wishes he'd visited the "President's Office" instead of doing his other things.
It's a "soap house," which is a fancy way of saying it's a bath-themed brothel. This is pretty much the only technically legal way to have intercourse with a prostitute legally in Japan, because the time you spend bathing is long enough to convince the authorities that you've "fallen in love."
This is all quite a bit spicier than I thought. I thought it had something to do with soap operas!

On one hand, it really sucks. On the other hand, the extent of modifications to a lot of the cars the cops blessed makes me hopeful the inspection and compliance process will be flexible enough for fun going forward.
Widebodies and engine swaps, for example, seem much more doable here than they were in Korea. I mean, I forgot to get a picture, but somebody made one of these 
into a pickup truck and the cops were okay with that.
