Hotel Info: (both have English speaking staff)


I would recommend the first Hotel if you can get in. They have free 100mb fiber WiFi service and a little bit nicer rooms. (rooms are small on both)

This is a cheap Hotel in the middle of Tokyo about a 20 min walk from Ropongi HOTEL ASIA CENTER OF JAPAN
Anouther cheap Hotel in the middle of Tokyo about 15 min walk from Ropongi Hotel Marroad Inn Akasaka (Business Hotel)

If you would like to hit up a couple of Lotus shops that sell performance parts while your in Tokyo here are the directions. These 2 shops are the easiest to get to and the only ones in Tokyo I've found that really have any aftermarket parts. The other lotus dealers are a bit far from train stations and not really worth going to unless your plan on purchasing a car.

To get to BSK go to Nishi-magome station (the circled subway station on the map) and get off, then grab a taxi and have him bring you to the following address...
It's about 1km from the train station and the Taxi should only cost you about 700-1000 yen. If you go tell them that Chris from Okinawa sent you.

住所 : 〒146-0082
東京都大田区池上3-1-8 第二京浜ビル1階
代表 : 小林 輝彦
電話 : 03(3754)8611

To get to Denag go to Ochiai-minami-nagasaki station (the circled train station on the map) and get off. When you Exit the train turn Left and go outside and turn left walk a little bit and it will be right there. They have a yellow lotus sign hanging off the bldg if I remember correctly.

This is the addy and phone number if you have any problems:

161-0031
東京都新宿区西落合
3-2-15 ドナーゲビル

TEL:03-5982-3055
