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

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
