Drift Tengoku — September 2004 · Page 219

Yoshida, Ichikawa, Chiba : I bought coilovers for my HCR32. Brand-new ones with a list price of about ¥120,000 were only ¥90,000! They said they couldn't go any lower, so no further discount, but I'm delighted. They really are new. This was my first Power Market; I hope there will be more exhibitors.

Teruya, Hasuda, Saitama : The exhaust on my drift-spec S14 Silvia K's developed a hole, so I came looking for a replacement. Success—I negotiated ¥10,000 down to ¥7,000! At the last Power Market I bought aero parts; today, a bargain exhaust…

…nice!

Kurimoto, Fujimi, Saitama : I came to Power Market hoping for good parts for my PS13 Silvia—wheels, [item name damaged]… And there was one item I wanted: a Cusco front strut brace, for exactly ¥5,000. Lucky!

Hino, Tokyo: I got a full bucket seat, seat rail and seat belt together for ¥36,000! I'll fit them and perfect front-wheel-drive drifting in my AE111 Trueno!

I'm really satisfied today! [opening fragment damaged]

Furusawa, Ota, Tokyo : It's an older-model exhaust for a GDB Impreza, but they reduced it from ¥25,000 to ¥21,000! My wife's objections didn't stop me. I'll fit it right away and test its performance.

Flat out over 1/320 mile!

[First nickname damaged], Ichihara, Chiba, and Nacchan, Kisarazu, Chiba: We got 225/45-18 tires for a JZS147 at ¥3,000 each, and 225/50-16 tires for an S14 Silvia for only ¥1,000 each. These prices are incredible! This is our third Power Market; we previously bought Laurel aero parts…

Sayoko / Yuko : OPT Power Market isn't just car parts and merchandise! This pair recommend U.S. McDonald's exclusive collectibles and a large selection of Beanie Babies, also hugely popular in America.

Yocchan [nickname]

This family brought plenty of collectible goods: Honda F1 victory memorabilia at ¥30,000 and a cloisonné Infiniti front emblem at ¥15,000. Enthusiasts should take a look. The wife's tip for negotiating a discount: ‘If you compliment me!’ .

…there too…

…before!

‘I'll keep lowering the price for young, cute women!’ says this somewhat suspicious-sounding exhibitor. A factory strut bar for a Lancia Delta is ¥20,000, and shirts are only ¥100!

[Exhibitor name damaged] offers old Le Mans programs mainly at ¥500, wheels used at Le Mans for ¥50,000, and T-shirts all at ¥500. Bargaining welcome!

…¥35,000 [RC Drift Package price continuation].

Serizawa, Gotemba, Shizuoka : I want to drive my EG6 Civic harder at Hakone [road name damaged]. Then I found this: a semi-bucket seat originally ¥49,000 for just ¥4,000! Even as an impulse buy, it's a bargain!

…wouldn't it be more worthwhile? [bargaining sentence fragment]

Akitaya, Shisui, Chiba : My 180SX is . Suspension and body-rigidity upgrades are essential, so I got coilovers for ¥60,000 and negotiated a ¥50,000 roll cage down to ¥30,000. A big success! Now let's drive!

Next event: December 12!

Planned with even more boost!
