This probably won't apply to a lot of people here unless you were somewhat familiar with Hong Kong...but if any of you had the chance to go there this summer, what sort of goodies would you pick up for your ride?!?

(95 prelude here, any suggestions?? :devil: )

Spoon rims, anything turbo related, injectors, fuel controllers, boost controllers, suspension, thats what my buddies are coming back with when they hit up Taiwan


But for your ride, anything JDM, one piece headlights, yadda yadda...buy it cheap there, and resell for tons of profit back here

hahah HKDM for sure...

i already got the jdm headlights, i was thinkin pickin up strut/sway bars or even a suspension set, but I'd need to figure out how to bring it all back here hahah I dont know how many pieces id be allowed to bring for cargo onto the plane and how much hassle/money it would be to bring those pieces back

gonna look for a pimp shift knob and other interior pieces when im there :bigpimp:

Hahaha...sorry 'bout that. I meant to say HKDM!

If you're going to bring back items, take it out of their boxes first, and just declare it as a "gift" when you cross borders. That's assuming you're not stopping off at San Fran first. It's more hassle going through American customs.

And yes, bring me back some air fresheners too. I prefer the "Air Spenser" brand, the blue colour. It's the same brand that most taxis in HK use. :thumbsup: But only if they're less than $10 each CND. I get can 'em for that at Megazone since I know the owners.

believe it or not, when i went back in 2004 i only saw 2 GT-R's and tehy were R34's...2 Evo's and one 180sx....it was sort of disappointing there were alot of the newer BZ-R trueno/levin's kickin around , but hopefully ill have more luck this time around :D

but here was the scenario on one lucky day:
a grey BNR34 rolls up and parks beside me, then another one comes from the opposite direction and parks on the other side of the road...i turn the corner theres a yellow 911 turbo just chillin there and an Evo4 in the next block....

also got to talk to GP Shop's owner, he has a completely pimped out mugen/spoon EP3 with work emotion wheels, its very very clean, HOT DAMN!


maybe i could scope out a set of those yellow BB1/2 foglights, that would be super-fly!...any other suggestions guys?
