I vote one for Koda Kumi. :( Apart from the obvious kawaiiness and sekushiness, after studying the 3 dvds that me and my wife often watch, shes a talented singer.

My second vote is rock band 8-Ball from Okinawa. I recently bought their 'Sound of Drift' albumn. You'll know their D1 theme music. They really do rock like an 80's rock band, and they look the biz too! They performed at Tokyo Auto Salon this year.

Number three is Hirai Ken. His cheesy tune 'I wanna be a popstar' caught my attention last year. It became me and my wife's theme song. (not that we wanna be pop-stars).

I'm wondering if this thread will be of interest to ppl.?? Please, list your top 3.

Ken Hirai is good, I liked Popstar as well, the video is really cute.

Koda Kumi (Kumi Koda? I dunno) is very "erotic looks good" to transliterate.

I have Cutie Honey as my phone's ringtone...

I guess The Pillows would have to rank up there for me, they have some good

music which is usually a ripoff of some other genre but they are so prolific that

there is bound to be something for everyone in their discography.

There is some tryhard Japanese reggae and stuff that is actually quite good

and at clubs they sometimes have life R&B singers who are sometimes good too!

Gotta agree with Koda Kumi she rocks, and the picture of her sitting on the bench top drinking milk makes me wana go to the fridge right now and get some.

Big fan on the Bz's, Remioromen, Boa and Hirai ken. my list would be

1. BZ's

2. Remioromen

3. Koda Kumi

There are a couple of one hit wonder songs at the moment that are really good, but not too sure who the bands are, will have to find out before i come home.

I'm absolutely disgusted to the core that no one has mentioned SMAP! yet...

I'm gonna have to put in a vote for Ayumi. I know 99% of people think she's a squealing airhead, but I rate her simply for resilience if nothing else. How could 950,000 bosozoku be wrong?

ayumi is pretty good. I like some of smaps songs,... but i think they are girls. the same with Ka-Toon.

I like a lot of japanese love songs, but as for the artists im not sure.

However my favourite Japanese artist is DJ krush

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
