Default What to get and to go while in Tokyo, Japan?

I will be on business trip to Tokyo next week and will spend the weekend there.
Is there a good place to visit or a good mod to buy while I am there?

Thanks.

there's a shop only for s2000 somewhere... i'll post the add and phone # tomorrow. (my firend has the add. in his dorm room right now...)

you could get JDM keys...
knee pads...
or small racing back mirrors (universal fit)...

other than that... all other parts are RHD oriented so eventually useless.

Spoon is accessible, <20 minute via JR from Tokyo station, but then you'd have to walk another 10 minutes or so.

Be sure to visit Honda's headquarters! Very hi-tech with domestic models and prototypes.

I would be interested to find the location of this shop as well

I would suggest that you spend as much time as possible in Roppongi drinking

I would also suggest a trip to the Imperial Palace gardens and some shopping in Shibuya.

Where abouts will you be staying?? I may be able to recommend some restaurants in that area as well.....

These are directions from my friend in Japan. The directions are from Ueno because this is where I stayed last month. I will try to get you directions to Super Autobacs in Tokyo Bay later. You need to copy and paste all three lines of the map url into the address bar. Make sure there are no spaces in the address and it will work, I just tested it, you may have to reload it though.

Honda show room @Aoyama.

You can go there by subway(Ginza line). You can get on Ginza line form Ueno. Get off AOYAMA ICCHOUME. you will see the bilding on the corner.

if you have friends over there have em take you to Daicoke (sp???) park. Its just on the other side of the Yokohama bridge...only on Friday nights and Sat nights...thats the famous Wangan area. In the parking lot thier are some real Jap muscle cars there...on the other side of the lot is usually drifting. Its really amazing at the things you see goin on there.
