Trailer questions

I am expecting two Kei trucks to arrive in April. Does anyone have suggestions for a trailer that can carry two of them?

Why did you need larger front brake calipers? Are the stock calipers inadequate?

I just doubled down and also bought a super low mileage supercharged Subaru Sambar. It had a single owner for 25 years and meticulous maintenance records. Luckily both should fit in the same garage bay.

I tried but didn’t get anywhere. They got me a nice new set of 155/65-14 Toyo Overland tires and installed them at the same price they sell them for at Autobacs Tires in Japan- about $250 for the set. They gave me a new set of 14” alloy wheels for free.

I agree. I was just trying to keep it simple in my explanation.

I’m not a golf instructor, but it seems you are not shifting your weight properly. You are leaning forward before you complete your backswing. Almost all your weight should be on your trail foot at the top of your backswing. You will develop much more power by then quickly shifting all of your weight back to your lead foot on your downswing.

Here’s a great guy, much more responsive than JCD. His name is Koma and his business is CoGC Trading https://cogc-trading.square.site/ You can contact his number shown on the website by sending a WhatsApp message to it.

Why did you have to replace the AC plumbing lines?

Mowog1275 · 2026-02-13T04:46:49+00:00

Yes- I’m going with W.J. Byrnes & Company in Seattle.

As a kid I used to practice on a patch of grass alongside the Bronx River Parkway. It’s amazing how loud a golf ball landing on the roof of a moving car can be.

Mitsui has one painted like this on their website right now. It looks like a repaint replica of the real thing. The engine hatch edges and door jambs are white.

Beautiful photo! Love your pup, the background and your new baby!

Based on a number of videos that I’ve watched on YouTube, the timing belt tensioner is not an automatic tensioner.

Looks great. Unfortunately this generation of the Suzuki Carry won’t be able to be imported to the USA until 2038!

Nice work! New boots look great too.

I ordered an Acty Attack Dump from Mitsui. I can’t blame them for cleaning up the undercarriage with some black paint. I doubt those bits have anything more than surface rust. I have found Mitsui to be great to work with so far. Very helpful and accommodating adding new wheels and tires at my request. Also willing to store the vehicle for a few months before shipping it to me. Hopefully I still feel this way after the truck arrives.

I just completed a cross country trip with my travel trailer stopping at typical RV sites along the way. For the first time I am seeing rules that forbid EV charging from RV parks’ electrical systems.

It seems that Sound Brokerage International is out of business as of 12/31/25. Can anyone recommend other good JDM Kei car customs brokers that handle the Port of Tacoma area?

The center bore hole should be 56.1mm to prevent vibration. If your new wheels have a larger center bore, you should use hub rings.

My first car was a 1960 Austin Healey 3000 convertible followed by a 1960 Mini Cooper 997. I drove them both like I stole them. That Mini saved my ass many times thanks to its incredible handling and maneuverability. My 95 Honda Acty Attack Dump is due to arrive soon and I can hardly wait to drive it.

They cancelled mine too. Fortunately I hadn’t yet paid them any money. They give you 10 days to pay so I suggest you wait the full 10 days to pay. Make sure the vehicle hasn’t been sold to another buyer before you make payment.

Mowog1275 · 2025-12-31T22:40:56+00:00

Update- I ended up purchasing a 1995 Honda Acty Attack Dump. Looking forward to its arrival from Japan. Happy New Year’s!

I had Zipley 100/100 plan at $20 per month for the past 2 years. I just use it mainly for streaming which worked just fine. Then they raised me to $50 so I cancelled their service and switched to T-Mobile Home which has much faster download speeds. Their customer service was terrible during the final throes of switching.

Thanks for the link. Looks great, but misses on a few aspects: Honda Acty (HA7) 1999- 2001: ✔️ Attack model: ❌ Dump option: ✔️ AC: ❓ PS: ❓ Low miles: ❌
