One of the last mods I added was the Nopro rear under spoiler. Actually, I never really got an opportunity to try this mod. Too many other things were happening.
Open top driving is a pleasure. If you have never experienced it, please try.
The was the last clean image of the car without vinyl GT-Roadster and sponsor logos.
Tripping around Nagano is awesome. But I'd recommend the dry season.
The mountains around here are inspirational.
Just about anywhere you can take a postcard image.
My fascination with vinyl designs started way before this.
Touring with Route Sixteen club was excellent.
Sights like this were common. Some of the best times.
M'z Lip and craft square and re-positioned number = cool!
Tsukuba Tsukuba Tsukuba. You can run flat all day if your game... was I?
Try something.
Try something Else
Back to Fuji
Hakkone!
Sakura
Simply Japan!.
Izu
April is always awesome
Supermarkets make great studios
So does a road.
Daikoku
Chiba Boso is another direction.
Locations are everywhere.
Narita
Nopro Touring.
Mazda HQ with R16
This event required something special.
A car is a blank canvas.
Touring with R16 in Iro Hazzaka. I like Haipins.
Test pattern.
More Touring with R16. I covered about 5000 klms with these guys. 40 NC roadsters cruising past is amazing.
NR inspiration. This was not the initial intention.
Most testing was done at Tsukuba. DFV settings, Camber check... etc.
Then Chiba always was a close and reliable empty road.
And sometimes an empty warehouse too.
Daikoku is always a place to compare and refect.
Yamanashi... The car was meant to be a street car!!! What was I doing at the circuit...? Can't stop the urge.
First long long long drive! Yeah it got dark quicker than I thought.
Like driving in heaven. The NC is good for a daily car.
Nikko is a good place to test any new car. Fun Fun Fun.
So after about 12000klms and a couple of years, the journey has ended for me, but only just starting for someone else.
I hope they enjoy the experience.
Russ.
