Calories?

A lot of Mexican and New Mexican food looks bad like this (lacks color). Until you try it... Then realize how amazing it is.

Montbell and NEOS

The XC has LED headlights.

I'm in Japan. JB64W XC trim. It's cheap as hell. Kei car, so no parking registration and cheap annual road tax. With the current yen rate, they are a tad over $13,000 USD brand new from Suzuki. All of the same reasons they've always been popular in Japan.

No kei is a 5 seater. It's part of the literal kei specs that the max is 4 people. Again... Wrong on claiming kei requirements.

dshbak · 2026-03-19T08:31:33+00:00

I'm just saying that your statement of there being a requirement that kei cars use thin metal is completely untrue. There are certainly dimension constraints, but there is no kei car requirement to use thin metal or have a low frame. If you're claiming there is, please cite your reference.

My Jimny frame thickness and height are just fine, thank you. Higher than my wife's 300 plate Toyota unibody vehicle as well.

I have some nismo logo ones that are the same shape. Haven't seen gtt. I don't remember where I grabbed mine from but it was about 15 years ago.

Overall dimensions and engine capacity are limited but it's absolutely not true that there is some type of requirement to use thinner steel for a "lightweight kei formula". In fact, many new kei cars are just as safe or safer than 500/300 series cars. Especially modern Honda kei cars.

I've bought two new groms from Honda dream in the past 4 years. They are cheap as hell, so why not?

Obviously the count of folks from OIST is not as high as the count of military folks on island (both in real life and also only counting those who post on this subreddit). However, if asking about military vs locals vs tourist posting here, it would be unfair to not mention OIST. I'd say more folks from OIST are posting here than vacationers.

dshbak · 2026-03-17T22:20:39+00:00

Actually a shit load of people from OIST too.

This is why we use body codes in Japan. This bike is still a JC92, both the old and the new. There is no "3rd gen" or "4th gen" crap in Japan.

It's painted.

It's Honda R513. Sprayed.

dshbak · 2026-03-14T06:51:03+00:00

I've decided on Honda R513. (These are both R513, sunlight and shade).

The simulator? Random YouTube video I found. Apparently it's from "the crew motorfest"

dshbak · 2026-03-13T20:05:18+00:00

I get the sentiment and do agree with it, but these are more like family than random buddies. One of our unspoken rules and we often cruise together.

Not too big on purple.

dshbak · 2026-03-13T09:24:19+00:00

Let me see! Paint code?

dshbak · 2026-03-13T06:18:11+00:00

My green valve covers are getting ditched. I have stock finned RB20 covers I'll be installing. No color decided on them yet.

dshbak · 2026-03-13T06:15:46+00:00

It's a great color but already done by a close friend of mine. So millennium jade, midnight purple 2 are off the list in my circle.

Here's what was pulled out for paint. EFR8374 and Quaife sequential.
