Howdy...

First off im not being a stereotypical English...just thought id ask, cos i dont think its been mentioned before :(

I have a bad back from work somedays, and i find lying on the floor helps a lot.

My bed has seen better days, and combined with the fact ive outgrown it long ago, i need a new one.

I thought id ask the guys living in Japan...Do you guys sleep in the traditional "roll it out on the floor style matress" bed??

Sorry if im way off here, but im really serious about finiding some information on the traditional Japanese bedding style. My back really does get bad, and i think if i started sleeping on the floor it would help me a lot...

Which ones of you guys said stuff it, i like my beds and i aint givin it up? :)

Any info on what makes up the traditional bedding etc would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks again in advance :P

And heres me thinking you were gonna ask about Japanese ladies "sleeping habits"... hehehe.

I'm western style double queen size all the way... I used to sleep on a futon for the first 2 years I was here though, I didn't like it at all... no good for "certain" "positions" right guv, seen?

Same as Rezz - futon on Tatami mat floors for the first two years, then the luxury of a proper bed since then. Got to admit I don't find anything wrong with futons, it's just that I'm so lazy I can't be bothered pulling out the cupboard and nite, then packing them away the next morning...:rolleyes:

Been sleeping on a futon since I got here, my back is really screwed up and it's pretty much the only thing I can sleep on these days. It's the same reason I put a nice stiff Recaro in the car, the factory R33 seats were killing my back on long trips.

So where can I get one of these in Japan?
you probably cant get one dude. as it is only available in australia BUT trust me man I run a bedding shop in adelaide australia and man you NEED a good Bed, dont buy something too hard make sure you get a COMFORTABLE BED and if soft is comfortable go for it. ONLY you can tell what is comfortable.

yes...i do think about it....and i have taken appropriate action.

i need a new bed anyway, cos ive outgrown my last one (had it for at least 10 years now) and i need a stiff mattress...

Had a posturepedic...but it feels good when im on the floor...hence this topic....

Now if i could only find a Traditional Japanese Futon maker in Adelaide.....

I just sleep on the desk ing the shop most night... but other then that i had the futon and then a double and a water bed and not a standard.. I guess that it really does not matter what media that you sleep on. i still wake up sore from a drifting the night before! getting old sucks so unless you sleep in your pool then i think you aught to see a doc on that back thing!

Ok...everyone. Dont worry bout my back. I have taken appropriate action at work, and seen the doctor.

His advice WAS to lay on the floor because it does help :D

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
