We're back at work after a big weekend at Tokyo Auto Salon 2010. One of the popular past times of show-goers is the collection of catalogs, spec sheets, stickers and anything else that is on offer.
Please drop us a comment if you'd like more detailed photos of any brand brochures or if you don't spot your favourite, most likely we have one!

We collected as many brochures and advertising material as we could at this years Tokyo Auto Salon. Goodyear thankfully helped out with massive carry bags that virtually everyone had, but the end of the weekend, they were full.
URAS had the 2009 runner up Skyline at the Blitz stand and Nomuken signed a towel for us!
RE Amemiya ruled the show with numerous vehicles including their award winning Westfield with RE13B, more photos to come later..
Blitz featured one o the largest stands from a major parts manufacturer and were inundated with people looking at the new products and the cars they had on show, they were certainly showing Greddy, Apexi, HKS how its done. Down the back in the JASMA area Rosso Modello, HKS, 5zigen and Fujitusbo had a small presence.
The big body parts manufacturers were out in force, some brochures from Bomex, Car Service Hiro, Racing Factory Yamamoto, Show Up, Varis and Voltex.
Yashio Factory is always a favourite, we picked up some stickers and a hoody jacket, just can't resist the cute little dragon.
J's Racing had a sizeable stand, with their heavily modified S2000 and new Honda Insight. The J's Racing race queen sticker came home with us!
JUN had a number of small stands throughout the show, including one in the RB26 Tuning section with Tomei and RH9.
A selection of VIP and body part manufacturers on show, including Aimgain, Amistad, E&A, K-Break, Fabulous, Garage Vary, Lexon and Tommykaira. The Tommykaira GTR was particularly aggressive in person and we'll have photos up soon!
Wheels are always a dominant player at Auto Salon's and Tokyo is no different, we managed to pick up a post from Dvinci and catalogs from Prodrive, R-Pride, WedsSport, Yokohama.
We were most impressed with R-Pride and so were the crowds, they had some unique new designs and really bring the Kei cars to life.
For the Suzuki Swift owners, the Monster stand was behind his latest Tajima Motor Corporation project, a complete vehicle from scratch. We were even lucky enough to see Monster Tajima himself! We also picked up brochures from TMSquare and Top Fuel who had tuned Suzuki Swifts on show.
Sometimes getting the brochures could be challenge, though some were enthusiastic in getting their brand into the hands of the public. Biot were obviously pushing hard to get into the market. Their perfume style branding can be a little confusing at first. Others from Ings, Leg Sport, Real Speed, Rocky Auto, Pan Speed, Unlimited Works and Wing Takeo.
Fujimura Auto, Magical Carbon Hasepro, Origin, Power Enterprise Eco Project, R.Masters, Rojam and Tein. Tein had a huge setup and virtually ever suspension kit they have on offer was hanging up in their stand. Tein is another company that is doing it right, pushing hard to develop the brand and an army of sales people to answer your every question.
My favourite area of the show was the RB26 Tuning world presented by Option Magazine. Some of the harder to find brochures included Tuning Admix, Cockpit Tatebayashi, Midori, Pentroof and Seed Racing.
And last of all, a teaser of a future post..
